The right will always be worse. And we can't change the Dems if that gets them our vote with them just not having to be evil.

As I said in another topic, people had their chance to replace Biden in the primaries. Vote Biden and vote in a more progressive candidate next time. Or don't vote and see not only Palestinian genocide x2, but also the return of 1950s discrimination.

The Right is always going to be aspiring fascist.
And yet despite that you're not advocating voting against them each time, every time.

Over and over the battle cry is when can't let the Republicans win. Do you guys suggest we just stay in the state of crappy Dems until we die.
No, people should absolutely attempt to continue moving dems to the left, because they're the only ones who are going to budge. But the fact is the republican party is a lost cause.

Since voting for them is not changing them if anything they move to the right.
Biden's first term has already far surpassed expectations as far as leftist policy goes.

So since what is your plan of getting better outcomes if not by our vote.
It's certainly not "let the fascists win because the left isn't left enough for me".

Which party is more likely to change their political stances when you reason with them and present facts and data that support your stances?

Because that's who you should be voting for, period.

Oh bullshit. You're not being attacked for "not supporting genocide", you're being attacked because you're advocating for letting open fascists take over America because Joe Biden is doing what literally every American president has done regarding Israel, and because the alternative will be inarguably, unequivocally worse.

Quit martyring yourself.

We can't push them to do better if they lose! Your life is fucked if Trump wins and you want to keep crying about how Biden isn't good enough. Figure out a different fucking way to push Dems left that doesn't involve getting tired of voting right when it's time for the most important election of our lives.

The GOP has guns trained on our heads and they are openly telling us that they will pull the trigger the moment they have the power. And you're like "I dunno. I need a better alternative to vote for than 'Not as bad as the GOP' The Dems aren't going to blackmail me into voting for them! "

I'm not dying for your peace of mind.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Is it though? America has a massive leverage over Israel to pressure them. Biden has the ability to stop weapons sales when they're being used for human rights violations. Hell, it was Biden himself who wrote that policy. Experts have stated that the Israeli campaign is "unsustainable without this level of US support".

https://www.state.gov/the-u-s-conventional-arms-transfer-policy/
https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2024/03/06/us-weapons-israel-gaza/

The US absolutely does have the power to intervene here and to make a difference. Not doing so is a choice. I feel like we're being way, way to eager to assume that genocide is inevitable.

i am voting for the lesser amount of genocide...
Just no. This is never acceptable. You start a damn revolution or stage a fucking coup for all I care before accepting genocide. There is no such thing as genocide for the greater good.

Hey! Shut the fuck up. The US foreign policy hasn't changed in decades and Biden is at least privy to the fact that Americans don't like bombing Palestine. No one's acquiescing to the Genocide in Gaza, we're preventing a domestic one.

Don't fucking pretend like not voting Biden is an any capacity a better choice for ANYONE. (Except rich white guys) Because abstaining a Biden vote is a vote for Trump, which is a vote more Extra Mega Genocide

Sorry you had to find out this way. But maybe look into the Electoral College

But what if he doesn't? Does that make him worse than Trump for America?

What even is intervening? Do we truly believe cutting support would be enough to sink Israel? Would doing that actually forgive Biden after he went this far?

I'm not justifying genocide. I'm just saying that if Biden doesn't change, I'm still not letting the GOP destroy America. That doesn't save anyone.

The good option is pressuring Biden into changing his stance. I've told you this a hundred times. But for some fucking reason you see throwing Palestinians under the bus as a more preferable option.

And don't tell me it's to elect Biden. Telling people that they have no choice but to accept genocide is about the worst damn campaign message you can send to voters considering abstaining. This is hurting his election chances.

edit:

Cutting off arms sales, condition future aid on certain terms. Canada and Spain did it recently, but they don't have nearly as much sway. US Presidents have done so too in the past.

And yes: I linked an article above that outright stated that Israel's campaign is unsustainable without US weapons. The vast majority of Israeli weapon imports are American. The US does have that much leverage.

Stop pretending like a Trump victory is the only option besides accepting Biden's involvement in Gaza.

It's not true. There's no evidence whatsoever that Biden would lose the election if he pivots. If you have that evidence, I'm open to seeing it. Until then, all signs say that his handling is costing him voters and threatening a trump reelection is baseless.
