      It’s like the only word you people know. Back in my day, trolls used to put in effort.

              Well, I would suggest you find something new pretty quickly, because things are changing with Israel. And I know you don’t actually care about Israel, you just want to attack Biden.

                If Biden ever stops supporting genocide, I’ll stop saying he supports genocide.

                His statements are starting to change, but his actions have not. Pressure on Biden to cease his support for Netanyahu’s genocide may be starting to work. If he actually listens and stops selling weapons that he knows will be used for genocide, I will be fucking ecstatic. Not only because I won’t be expected to vote for a man who is actively supporting genocide, but because I want a president who is responsive to progressives’ concerns.

                I’m the same way about Biden’s student loan forgiveness. Up until the day he announced the first attempt, I was sure he was the same Biden who championed the law that made sure people could not discharge student loans via bankruptcy. I was sure he would never change. I’m happy I was wrong. I’m happy he listened to progressives and not centrists. When it was shot down by SCOTUS, he could have given up forever and announced that he tried. He didn’t. He had a contingency plan ready to go and has persisted in forgiving what he can with the power he has. This is what I want to see.

                If Biden proves responsive on this issue, FUCKING AWESOME!

                I have every right to criticize Biden where I think he should improve. Everyone does.

                  See, pretty much 100% of this comment I agree with – this is exactly my view. I actually had exactly the same experience where I didn’t expect things like student loan forgiveness out of Biden and then was surprised - he’s a rich white guy who’s worked in Washington all his life; my expectations were quite low.
