Plenty of them are. But you're willing to toss them all out with a figurehead. The AICP is currently campaigning against several Democrats for calling out the genocide .Yeah Biden's out of touch and a bit problematic. But this is the height of self-defeating virtue signaling. Not that it has stopped a lot of you in the past. San timoniously and hypocritically criticizing everyone else while doing nothing to make the situation actually better. Soothing your own conscience with trying to convince yourself that you're meaningless gesture was worth it.
Biden is what we are saddled with and it could be far worse. You need to take care of business this election cycle and the moment it's over start pushing better people for 2028 or sooner.
That's what people said last election. We always have to push them to be better the next election. Always settle for worse. What a shit electoral system the US has. And the hilarious part is that unless that person you're talking to lives in a swing state their vote probably doesn't matter anyway.
What if I hate America? Who should I vote for? 🤔
Very nice, you have made genocide into nothing more than virtue signaling. You are gross, your arguments are gross and it is your continued support to the establish us political system and parties that gave us trump to begin with.
Keep on virtue, signaling. And whatever you do don't do anything that might actually help.
It's very telling that you can't address any of the points I made. Acting offended is all you've got.
You are offensive.
You are performing outrage poorly.
Oh my, you got me.
100% and it's not any sort of achievement. Even. You all are very predictable. So much talk and whining. So a little action and solutions.
You can't even hold a debate. You can't even argue your points. The whole time you've been doing but nothing but making strawmen and accusing people of random bullshit just because they disagree with you. Classic ML move. Not all of us can be children well into adulthood. At some point most of us happen to have to grow up. You may be the exception.
Reality requires compromise. Reality requires strategy. You are not going to get everything you want. Even part of the time. You have to work within the systems that exist to achieve the results you want. And the fucked up situation right now. Is that Biden is the best chance a lot of Palestinians etc have coming from the US. It will be either be him or Trump.
You at best will either not vote. Or cast your vote for someone who never stood a chance of ever achieving the presidency and doing absolutely zero to help out these poor people being genocided that you pretend to be so concerned about. All so you can make some excuse to yourself about how you are somehow superior to everyone around you. Because that's all that's important to you. Virtue signaling and feigning superiority. You can't even make a hard decision to do the best thing possible to actually help people. Even something so small. It's beyond you.
