Your first statement minimizes the genocide in Gaza and the President's active role in it, which is dissimilar from other foreign conflicts. Not all of those conflicts are situations were people are corralled into a tiny speck of land and bombed and starved. We won't know the full effects until years later (if ever), but even now, there is a recognition within the international community that this mass killing of Palestinians goes beyond our usual criminal acts - i.e. a genocide. It is the very worst thing any country can do or help another country do.

You're just okay with all of that for whatever benefit you think you'll get if Biden's elected. I've seen what a Biden presidency gets me - it's nowhere near enough to justify a genocide (nothing is btw).

I wasn't minimizing it. Israel has been genociding Palestinians since before we were alive, and America has blindly supported them every step of the way.

If Biden supports Israel and Trump supports Israel, we have to look at more than a single issue and make the rational choice that causes the least damage, not essentially opt out and leave it up to chance.
