it might be wise to end those behaviors and policies that have human rights advocates concerned.

I don’t get this point.

Don't play stupid; you know exactly what the grandparent commenter is talking about.

I understand that it was about the Israel/Hamas conflict. And I understand that many people disagree with the US supporting Israel and the way things have played out so far in Gaza. I wish the US would not get involved in conflicts in that region, but to me a single international policy isn't enough to negate all of the good that I feel Biden has done during his presidency. I also believe that any Israelis that have committed war crimes should be held accountable.

Also, it's extremely stupid to say "I don't like how this person is handling the situation, so I will trust the person who wants to make it worse"

Or you know, vote for someone who wouldn't support it in the first place...which you could do if the DNC didn't collude with fascists to keep alternative voices silenced.

Ranked choice voting would also fix it

This. Be sure to ask every elected official you've ever see about this, bring it to the forefront of their consciousness.

Reducing a systematic campaign of ethnic cleansing to an "international policy" is gross.

It's interesting how wilfully ignorant people get when the data doesn't support their candidate. I should be angry, but at this point it's become so comical that I have to laugh.

Please see my response: https://lemmy.world/comment/8368703

So ethnic cleansing and support thereof is now reduced to "a policy?" That's a big oof.

Biden mishandled COVID, has slowly re-enacted some of Trump's worst policies on immigration, abandoned those who, at no small risk to themselves, supported us in Afghan, has presided over a massive increase in the cost of housing... and I guess, on the bright side, forgave a fraction of a percent of the student loans he said he'd forgive.

Maybe it's time to support someone who doesn't have the blood of countless innocents on his hands.

Here's some other things Biden did to fuck over the progressive and leftist voters who helped him win the 2020 general election:

Called on congress to block the rail strike: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/biden-calls-on-congress-to-block-potential-railroad-strike
Walks back his own campaign promise for $50k forgiveness: https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/539139-biden-balks-at-50k-student-loan-forgiveness-plan/
Goes around congress to sell weapons to Israel: https://www.cnn.com/2023/12/29/politics/biden-congress-israel-military-aid/index.html
Forced federal workers back to office: https://www.cnn.com/2023/04/13/politics/in-person-work-biden-administration/index.html
Increased the defense budget: https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/28/politics/defense-budget-biden-administration/index.html

Maybe it's time to support someone who doesn't have the blood of countless innocents on his hands.

Does this include forcing R to kick out Trump too?

If it were up to me, I would see the Republican party dismantled. Were I a member, I would vote for it's dissolution. But thing is, they can nominate whoever they like, including a fascist psychopath. That he's second most likely to win is a direct result of GOP and DNC collusion.
