Think the main point was, "let's not, as a population, vote for ANYONE who commits genocide." But noooooo. That was too much to ask.

Then I guess you have no vote option on this one. Just a choice on bad or worse.

First, our entire system is made up. The fact that we've spent centuries entrenching traditions and imaginary institutions around it has no bearing on the fact we could collectively throw it out tomorrow. Second, there were options besides D and R in the election, regardless of whether or not the population collectively chopped its own dick off and decided not to vote for any of them out of paralyzing fear of the other party winning.

Lol Biden could have stopped the genocide whenever he wanted. The left isn’t in power, sorry he fucked up

Biden didn't fuck up. Zionism is a genocidal ideology, and Biden is a Zionist. Mission accomplished for ol' sleepy

I don’t disagree, however if bidens job was to get reelected he fucked up.

Me? Own WHAT? A lifetime of never supporting mass murderers? I'm not the cog in the genocidal system, fuckwad. Own the fucking mass murdering politicians you keep voting for out of your own self-instilled sense of helplessness. A world of people like me actually WORKS. A world of people like you dies in a rapidly approaching nuclear holocaust. And the most insufferable part of all is you actually presuming to speak down on US. That's a firm "fuck you", to you, from me.
