LESSER OF TWO EVILS The republicans are also pro genocide. Shut up Ivan!
While I agree with you, it's very disingenuous to label everyone you disagree with a Russian bot on this matter. And people are very well in their right to criticize Biden for his political stance. Some people have family members that died in Palestine. You can't expect them to jump with joy at the thought of voting for Biden.
I'm not saying Bidens stance on Palestine is favourable just that trumps is worse. Clearly both candidates are terrible, but trump winning could very well take away your ability to change that. If trump gets into power he will attempt to make any criticism of him illegal. So Israel will still be bombing the shit out of Gaza, but if you try to protest you'll get shot.
As for the Ivan comment, the literal only person other than trump who benefits from a trump administration is Putin. So I have to assume that anti Biden memes originate with the fsb. It just stands to reason. Any rational thinking left leaning person knows what is at stake and wouldn't be so foolish as to spread that shit.
Imagine being so completely disconnected from reality that you don't understand that people defend all kinds of positions all the time, whether they're stupid, reasonable, well-thought or completely lacking in evidence. You would well to rethink the whole Russian bots narrative, because it turns you into a conspiracy nut unable to politically engage the people you're trying to bring to your side.
Russian bots aren't people.
What acomeback!!1!
Lots and even an overwhelming part of some topics are clearly coming out of the Kremlin, like nuclear, this idiotic take on biden only etc.
I think you have to be a time traveller, but like from 1999 to now to not see that.
