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.

    Are you saying this genocide started under Biden? Trump went out of his way to make things worse for Palestinians, from moving the embassy to Jerusalem to the assassination of Soleimani. There’s a township in the Golan Heights named after Trump.

      How does the assassination of solemani have anything to do with it? He’s an iranian general. And yes the slaughter did start under biden but the occupation, zionist oppression and the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians has been there since the british mandate of Palestine. Moving the embassy to Jerusalem certainly did not help the Palestinians and im not saying its gonna be better under him. What I’m saying like many others is that we won’t vote for someone who’s basically committed the genocide. I’d rather punish him then have him in office again and I’d rather play the game of chance of maybe setting a precedence forward that genocide won’t help you get elected again.
