I remember when Biden invaded Ukraine and told Israel to attack Gaza. That was after he pulled the 'housing price' and 'gas price' levers in the White House, of course.

Well, Biden hasn't done any of those things, but we need to accept the facts that he did block peace negotiations in Ukraine, he vetoed multiple ceasefires in Palestine, and he supported both conflicts by providing weapons.

I don't know if trump would have been better, but we gotta admit that Biden actively did a terrible job.

Biden's failings are more in what he allowed to happen through inaction rather than what he directly caused.

Hmm... which would I rather have, someone passive that doesn't directly cause problems or an unapologetic fascist who uses Hitler-style language in his speeches and promises to open concentration camps?

But I'm sure you're white, heterosexual, Christian and male, so you'll be fine.

Sounds like you have no problem with using racist language, as long as it isn't directed towards you. Hypocritical much?

What racist language? What are you talking about?
