I didn't say that either. Biden should stop supporting genocide.
Biden has already been critical about the actions of Israel. Trump is in full support so when you say Biden should do X when you know his opposition would lean HARD into X, you are saying they're the same when one is clearly worse.
People like you love to make things black and white when the reality is shades of grey. Israel has the right to defend itself against the Hamas attack that killed over 1000 Israelis. They do not have the right to inflict genocide on anyone and whether or not you think Biden supports it ( hint hint: he doesn't) that doesn't mean Israel is going to stop.
Maybe you're just young and need to grow up a bit. Who knows? I just know your arguments are garbage.
He sold them weapons that he knew would be used for genocide. His tepid criticism is literally the words of a politician. His actions are clear.
Selling them weapons is support.
That doesn't mean we have to help them.
Listen to yourself sometime. We're talking about genocide here. If ever there was something that is clearly morally wrong in all cases, it's genocide. Biden should stop supporting Netanyahu's genocide.
You're so clueless I can't believe I ever bothered engaging with such a child. Grow the fuck up.
And since you can't justify support for genocide, you go for the Standard Centrist Dismissal.
You should stop supporting genocide.
