      Very true. Let’s do our best to ensure that doesn’t happen.

      A lot of people don’t understand this. 2024 will very well be the last real election before we turn into russia-style sham elections which always result in putin getting elected.

        Russia’s next honest election will have Putin falling out an inexplicably open window. It can be American history if America goes fascist.

      That’s what everybody said about 2020, yet we had an election, Biden was in power, then Biden started enabling and supporting genocide.

      Seems like we might have made the wrong choice.

      I would rather have an inept evil moron than the competent evil wolf in sheep’s clothing that we got

          What exactly am I trying to fool people with?

          How extremely anti-Biden I am?

          What I think of the Buffoon Cheeto in chief?

          I think it is pretty fucking clear where I stand.

              Yes, because I say fuck supporting genocide I must hate transgender and homosexual people.

              Did it hurt trying to stretch that much?

                Option 1: The genocide continues.

                Option 2: The genocide continues, possibly gets worse. The government persecutes gay and transgender people and Muslims and immigrants.

                Option 3: Option 1 or 2 happen anyway but you don’t vote for a viable candidate.

                If you’re picking options 2 or 3, then yeah I don’t think you care that much about gay and transgender people.

                  Forgive me, if I think dead people are more important than the ones that are just going to be alive and repressed.

                  At least they’ll still be alive.

                  As long as someone is alive, we can work on improving the situation.

                  But once we send weapons to support, genocidal, actions and killing, and then people die well. We can’t improve their life now.

                  So yeah, maybe if you guys actually cared you’d run someone to fucking hasn’t sent weapons to kill children with while by passing Congress twice.

                  You have fun telling yourself whatever you need to vote for someone who is actively supporting genocidal actions.

                  Have fun, showing them the human lives are worth that little to you and they should keep on doing whatever the fuck they want because you’ll vote for them anyway

                    You seem to be under the illusion that the dead people are going to live instead. They don’t. Your options are:

                    • Dead people

                    • The same number (or more) dead people, plus repressed people

                    You very clearly see these two options as equally acceptable, which means the repression of LGBT people means nothing to you.

        The russian narrative about Joe Biden supporting genocide is getting old.

          What do you call it?

          Because I call sending a bunch of weapons to people who have already shown that they will bomb innocent children and by their own account have only got 9000 militants, supporting genocide.

          Hi Cole, cutting off the power water food and then destroying the hospitals committing genocide

          I call stealing 15% of someone’s land and forcing them off of it while murdering tons of innocent civilians genocide

          Let me help you out here, try swapping out brown Palestinians for white Ukrainians.

          Or hell just plug in Jewish instead of Palestinian.
