Muslim voters disillusioned with President Biden’s position on Israel are facing the prospect of a difficult choice in 2024.
The moderate in question being Genocide Joe? The bigger problem to me seems to be why the DNC is incapable of producing an actual viable candidate.
Edit: you can downvote to your hearts content, as long as you eventually come to the realization that we’re headed nowhere nice regardless of how much we “vote blue no matter who”. The GOP has made their position clear beyond a doubt. The DNC has followed that up by crippling Bernie for having hints of socialism to him when he actually had a good shot of winning, leading us to Trump. Biden was never wanted by anyone, even before this went down. He won solely on the basis of not being Trump, and is currently being hated for his own stances. And still we all know the DNC won’t put up another candidate in 2024. Why? Are they not worried about Trump? Do they give a shit about the state of the country at all beyond maybe winning votes and securing donors? And even then the votes apparently matter less than the donors.
When you’ve got one party openly calling for fascism and the other party barely pulling the breaks on it, it doesn’t take a lot to realize where you’ll probably end up.
You said it better than I could. I tried. Biden didn’t win because people like him. If they can’t put forward another inspiring candidate soon, then there is a good chance Trump will get re-elected. I don’t think the DNC even cares as long as it isn’t a progressive candidate. Then in 4 more years they can say, well if you don’t vote for our candidate you’ll get worse. Rinse & repeat.
Exactly. It’s just depressing when you actually sit down and realise that if nothing else drastically changes (which it won’t just by voting) we’re pretty much guarenteed to slide into whatever shit the GOP is willing to orchestrate due to the DNC’s stance. We’ve basically got fascism and fascism-on-pause as our only options when it comes to voting. Obviously one still feels preferable to the other (nobody would claim otherwise), but take a look at the big picture and realize how screwed everything is if all we have to depend on is “voting blue no matter who” while hoping the blue’s own shitty (in this case outright murderous) stances haven’t managed to discourage enough people to stay home once again.
I’m optimistic but in other ways. I’m optimistic that people will wake up to the manipulation taking place on both sides, and start a movement that encourages education and self-awareness. Even then, we are pretty defenseless against AI and those that may control it, but at least we will have some insight into how easily we are manipulated.
I keep seeing this nickname pop up but nobody seems to be able to tell me who Joe Biden has committed genocide against. The only Joe I know that’s committed genocide is Stalin.
It may not be considered genocide, but Biden supported the Iraq war and other efforts which caused a lot of civilian deaths estimated to be well over 100,000.
You mean the war that was supported by virtually the entirety of Congress and the Senate, up to and including Bernie Sanders? That war?
They got fucking lied to and made a bad decision based on bad information. How is that anyone other than the Bush administrations fault?
