Not to pile on you, but whether or not his domestic efforts are sufficient or at least worth holding ones nose, his treatment of Palestine is disqualifying to anyone w half a brain.

But apart from the moral question, which you evidently couldn't be bothered by, if it's such an easy choice, why is he polling so badly? It's simple: he's a bad candidate. He's polling dreadfully in what should be another easy Dem win, he's universally seen as being illequipped for the job (humiliations in Afghanistan (frankly one of few his unambiguous Ws), Ukraine, and now Palestine, with the Court, w Texas, ceding the immigration issue to Republicans, cant string two sentences together)-- why are you wasting energy caping for him? The Dems have enough time to replace him. You'd avoid these pitiable indignities.

Yet somehow, two years after that “fact check,” Nazi insignia still keep showing up in US corporate media photos & footage. Are they Putin propagandists, too?

Right wing extremism is an issue on a global scale. Obviously we continue to combat it, on a global scale. Labelling all of Ukraine nazis and ceding an entire country to Putin because you saw an emblem somewhere is cutting off noses to spite faces territory.

You cannot cede a territory to an aggressive nation trying to redraw the lines of the map next door to NATO. (In a country that should really be in NATO if they’r had any balls for that matter.)

So you have no issue with literal Nazis trying to hold an ethnostate. Thank you for the admission. If 12+ nazis have sat at a table, and normies still sit with them, there's now 13+ nazis at the table. Not my problem they opted to flag themselves as enemies of all mankind.

Huh I wonder if Ukraine and the West considered having Ukraine join NATO before the SMO? Did anyone consider that lmao.

Mmm-mmh. Nope. Your source has been paid off by multiple entities within Silicon Valley, no doubt to peddle the same crap the State Department would have its settlers believe with how frequently Facebook turns up in its funding docs. Gonna have to come with something more substantive. Still loving how you genocide collaborators can never stand and accept criticism from your countrymen, it's always gotta be Trump cultists, or Russian propagandists, or those damn dirty thieving Chinese with you honkies.

If it walks like a duck, and it talks like a duck, it's not a fuckin goose. There's too many Swastikas, Black Suns, Wolfsengels, Deaths Heads, Banderite insignias, SS bolts, and other assorted neonazi insignias in that gaggle of fascist vermin for me to believe they're not nazis, and way too many for me to think YOU'RE not a Nazi at this point with how hard you belabor your blunted point. You're really out here like "NO, NOOOOOOOOO, YOUR EYES ARE LYING TO YOU" like a typical gaslighting cracker settler, do you realize that rn?

Executive order against police using excessive force , emphasis on body cameras

So... nothing. Qualified immunity still exists.

Ended the war in Afghanistan

okay...

Aid to Ukraine regardless of a broken congress

... and then kept up pressure that started another war to replace the one in Afghanistan...

Expanded NATO, adding countries who previously had no interest in joining, some along the Russian border have applied

...and then increasing the likelihood that Ukraine won't be the last proxy war battlefield in the Eastern part of Europe. Not to mention arming, funding, and politically supporting an active genocide against the Palestinian people.

So ole Joe traded one war for two wars... but at least its not "our" boys getting killed "over there"!! maybe-later-kiddo

First President to join workers on a picket line

Remember when he broke up the rail workers strike... and then trains full of toxic chemicals started wrecking and turning people's back yards into mini superfund sites?

Infristructure was in the works before he was elected, and was famously kneecapped split multiple times with a promise he would only sign one if both haves come, but then left the one with the key climate and public works funding to dry

Oh wow Inflation really has been reduced... I will remember that when I am trying to understand how my grocery bill keeps going up

The Afgan treaty was signed under trump, his only imput was how to manage it, a thing that most observers would say was bad

Ukraine is a bunch of Nazis I would not call that bad

This is not the first ever tax, at best he is re instituting one but 1 point

CHIPS act is needless protectionism and sabr rattling about china

Judge apointments, while we have a supreme court that just ignore, also every president does judge apointments and he is behind target

he did not get the cap, he is the president I do not care about his campane

The US is not a comand economy sadly, he does not have anything to do with jobs

I am sorry he busted the picket of the railroad workers he cannot gain a SINGLE point on union rights

He started then he was told "Actualy would you not" and backed down nothing forgiven outside of normal workfare corses

Who fucking cares about the stock market, also president does not directly control that

He is funding and aiding the genocide in Isn'treal

Has not even made a move to fill the under full USPS board of governors, let alone doing that to put a PMG who does not have a vested intrest in destorying the USPS

That timeline is too late, not enough teeth, and he does not push back when companies say "we just cannot do it"

Red flag laws do not do anything, there is no fix to the systemic issues of gun violance, the US is not the higest rates of gun ownership in the world yet we top gun violance

Yet no decrease in police excessive force, this has been little more than lip service

Agian, president cannot control the job market

nato is an Imperalist project and bad for the world

in 4 years you named 1 good thing, congratulations

Ok a lot of your stuff is just "but It's not enough" whinging. He has been fighting on hell of an uphill battle against a lot of arrayed forces of corporate interest and christian fascism in case you hadn't noticed. And more to the point, when the alternative is to let Trump into office and watch democracy most likely fade away, I feel like this is paramount to throwing the baby out with the bathwater or whatever. And this one…

Ukraine is a bunch of Nazis I would not call that bad

Say what??? I feel like while you may have some points here, this puts us at such loggerheads there is no point continuing the discussion. Putin is trying to annex AN ENTIRE COUNTRY. With a democratically elected leader. They are NOT nazis.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

An entire country with a coup government that was installed, armed, backed, and bankrolled by Amerika, settler. Fixed that for you. Further, that's a WHOLE LOT of Iron Crosses, Swastikas, Black Suns, Wolfsengels, and Deaths Head patches on the troops of the coup government that you're apologizing for as not being neonazi scum. Not gonna lie, this is starting to sound a lot like Nazi apologetics.

Wild how it's always these types of liberals advocating for genocidal settler regimes, innit?
