On one hand you have a group on the left threatening to not vote for Biden because he won't say the words that condemn Israel, On the other hand, the alternative says shit like this (and 100% means it).

@armeck you think this is about not saying the right words and not policy?

@virtualinanity @armed [email protected] I think when one is faced with a choice between the awful and the merely bad, the path should be obvious. Pretending there is a third option is fantasy.

@KimSJ @virtualinanity @armed I think facilitating genocide goes beyond the merely bad. And I agree with you Trump is something beyond awful. But he is viable candidate because dems have dispirited young and minority voters so much that we have to worry about turnout

@virtualinanity @armed I agree that Biden’s position on Gaza is well beyond bad (and actually mystifying, for such a seasoned political operator), but it is dangerous to judge politicians on a single issue. Most of what Biden is achieving is impressive.
We made that mistake with Blair in the UK. All his achievements, including the Good Friday Agreement which brought peace to NI, were set at naught because of his support for US in Iraq. As a result, we have suffered 14 years of Tory misrule.
