justify aggressively working to get Trump elected president.

Genocide supporters interpret all opposition to their single favorite activity to be support for Trump.

Instead of acknowledging that international relations are really really hard,

And more gaslighting. "We have to support genocide like I want because it's too complicated for you to understand. It's not unconscionable. It's advanced."

that every American president since Israel became a country has supported the genocide of Palestinians

"That's the way we've always done it" is a shitty excuse for supporting genocide. And I would like you to provide a source for Jimmy Carter supporting the genocide of Palestinians.

and your lack of understanding around the issues you make inane comments trying to make paint Joe Biden as a omnipotent dictator that has unlimited power to control every other country on earth.

I didn't say that. I said he's supporting genocide. I already explained what he can do to stop supporting genocide. It was such blasphemy to you that you launched into what I correctly identified as gaslighting and abuse.

but you never use your soap box for divestment from China to stop the genocide of the Uyghurs. I’m sure that’s just a coincidence though.

We're not selling Xi weapons for genocide, nor are we running interference for him at the UN. I think we should divest from China and should be more outspoken regarding their long history of human rights abuses. But this thread is about the genocide in Gaza. Take your whataboutism elsewhere.

You also don’t seem to understand what gaslighting is

Ooh. Recursion.
