Democrats need to pull themselves together and remember: Biden is still better than Trump - eviltoast

While rebutting another post here on Lemmy, I ran into this. This says exactly what I want to say.

I am not a friend of Biden’s Administration. I think they drug their feet over a variety of things ranging from holding Trump and his goons accountable for January 6th through rulemaking on issues like OTC Birth Control and abortion rights, and yes, I think he’s too quick to please big business. But then I remember what the alternative is, and … well, disappointed in Biden or not, I’m voting for him. Because my wife is a Black bisexual goth woman, four strikes under Team Pepe’s tent. And I have my own strikes for marrying her as a White dude, and respecting her right to not have kids since she doesn’t want them is another strike against me. And I care about my Non-Christian, Gay, Transgender, and Minority friends, and will never willingly subject them to Team Pepe.

    Biden is literally facilitating genocide

    Sure is, it’s awful. I don’t disagree.

    I’m not sure why you think Biden’s words are so important when his actions are on display.

    Biden is peddling some bullshit on this issue, but facilitation will always be better than outright encouragement for full elimination of Palestinians.

    And under Biden’s america. the U.S. isn’t genociding anybody in the U.S., Trump seems keen on changing that.

      No, actually. Providing the actual bombs to do the genocide is worse than mere words of encouragement.

      Trump has no plans to kill people en mass in the U.S. Now you’re just inventing things.
