The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I dont think you understand what you are doing, actually. No one is agreeing with you for a reason champ.
Did I break the sacred rule of doing Genocide denial for Democrats?
At some point people are going to have to ask themselves if they're part of a death cult.
For your argument that Democrats are the same as Republicans because of Gaza to have any weight you'd have to establish that 1) the Democrats are the "genocide" party and the Republicans are not, and 2) Democrat supporters follow the party lock step on the issue of genocide. As an independent, it sucks that there is no anti-genocide party, but there is way more opposition to it on the Democratic side, both among elected officials (who are beholden to AIPAC) and voters. The "both sides" argument just doesn't hold water.
This is false. Biden bypassed congress to send weapons to israel even when Republicans blocked the israel weapons. Biden even used secret loopholes for over 100 arms shipments to israel.
Furthermore Democrats are responsible and in the position for invoking Leahy Law right now. Not Republicans.
Both of them have share of the blame but the ultimate say whether israel gets the weapons currently lies with Democrats.
Nonetheless your argument is irrelevant. "Republicans support Genocide too" is not a justification for Democrats to support Genocide.
