Ah...so...then....why is everyone getting downvoted for calling him out? It is consistent with what I am saying and my experience since I joined .world...

I think that some people come out and are critical, but then say they aren't going to vote for him, or push something just a bit further. Tone also makes a difference.

There's two options in November, one is worse for Palestine than the other.

Because 9/10 they are re-posts, and more often than not the exact same fucking article.

Like the fucking dick cheese that kept posting poll after poll after poll so much that I blocked his ass.

I am very clearly talking about right here and now in this post. Err....did I miss something? Did A lot of comments get deleted?

The only downvoted comments I'm seeing here are on your posts complaining about downvotes. The top comment is calling out Biden and 3-to-1 upvoted. Vote Blue occasionally shows up early in a random post and sets the tone, but most Gaza posts are very much favoring antiwar/progressive sentiment.
