i'm thinking zionist democrats and republicans would at least try to if he just abruptly stopped sending israel money and arms

Democrats support a social safety net. Republicans fight against EVERY form of social(ist) support with legislation and propaganda. Let’s list the states which denied accepting federal funds to expand Medicaid… hmm… and no, it has nothing at all to do with “disabled, queer, non-white, neurodivergent or an intersection of those things” as they specifically help those people. As noted, we are comparing them to fucking republicans. What you’re saying makes almost no sense at all. Are you confusing Democrats with Republicans?

If Democrats are so supporting of social(ist) programs, why did 106 of them vote YEA in a resolution denouncing socialism and deeming US as capitalist country first and foremost? https://nebraskaexaminer.com/2023/02/02/u-s-house-agrees-on-something-lawmakers-condemn-the-horrors-of-socialism/ https://clerk.house.gov/Votes/2023106?Page=2

If democrats care so much about marginialized peoples, why are they not donating to these peoples gofundmes? Or responding to their calls for mutual aid? Because it cuts into the neoliberal commodification and privitization of public assistance.

"This “neo-liberalization of social services” transformed charity into an industry where professionalism, maintaining tax-exempt status, and uplifting the needs of corporate donors and capitalist foundations fueled the work. Now, the nonprofit system encourages social movements to follow capitalist models, is monitored and influenced by state and corporate entities, and is generally focused on employing educated workers to the helping profession rather than mass activist organizing.11 Conversely, mutual aid organizers are attuned to the needs of the collective over any other stakeholder, and the lines between those offering and receiving assistance are blurred."

Democrats are closer in class and ethics to republicans than they are to the working class. They are all friends and colleagues of each other, not sworn mortal enemies like they portray.

Its hard to differentiate Dems from Repubs since they both seem to want the working class to dissolve.

Tell me how Trump being elected will help the Palestinian cause.

Nobody thinks that.

Democrats gave a cushy border deal to Republicans knowing they’d refuse it over electoral concerns and guess what, they did. Again: either a Democrat or Republican will be elected for each seat available in the upcoming elections. How will a Republican taking office help migrants?

the link referring to the border issue is talking about biden concocting a trump era border policy in executive order style, so not about the deal he tried to make with repubs. the dems don't want more people crossing the border either.

biden cant unilaterally solve the problems of the the US but he can stop weapons and money going to a genocide.

EDIT: adding citations as to why biden is not that labor friendly:

what dog whistles? i used factually accurate information. that 260 bil is fact. it is fact that israelis are zionists, they literally call themselves that. israel is a terror state much like the US is a terror state and always has. always will be.

By the way, all this colonialism talk always irks me most cause Americans glassed and colonized my country and continue to colonize and own it, yet they feel they’re qualified to criticize others on the subject. My people were murdered, used and made out to be the enemy and we never got so much as an apology, before you guys moved on and are moralizing over there now.

so you don't want people within the imperial core to protest against the imperial core and its colonial, genocidal policies?? all your paragraph above tells me is i should be protesting against both parties more. i can personally apologize for the US actions but it wouldn't really do much. there are a lot of reparations that need to be paid by the US and that is what we are trying to do. you can't force democrats to do jack shit unless they feel they will lose their power.

Extract yourself from my Nation first before you call out others

i would if i personally could. and that is something that i advocate for. and i'm not calling out other nations that are occupied by US military/capital. i'm calling out my country and israel for conducting an ethnic cleansing.

hilarious of you to think that it made no difference. if democrats admitted that it did, then they would be giving away the only that really scares them, not being liked and voted for!

bold of you to assume i own a home i can sit and pout in

agreed

We can argue that neoliberals like Biden and the current establishment Democrats are hating of the QIA+ part of the LGBTQIA+ community, climate activists, climate refugees, direct action initiatives, grassroots movements, just to name whats off the top of my head. They also have a disdain for poor people but historically yes have made things more accessible, on paper. If you are disabled, queer, non-white, neurodivergent or an intersection of those things, you are second class and that is the lived experience. The way they talk and the way they spend and lobby shows that they also want to push an ableist, classist agenda that only allows certain diversity to a point before it becomes too inconvenient or uncomfortable.

Biden has supported israel since his days in congress. He said that if there was no Israel, the US would create one. Israel has been doing this since day one. 1948 Nakba. He shares the same values as israel. The values of fascism, colonialism, zionism. This is his legacy and we should not let him forget it. https://theconversation.com/biden-says-the-u-s-would-have-to-invent-an-israel-if-it-didnt-exist-why-210172

Kamala Harris told Guatamalans not to try and come to the US. We did a coup there once. The Biden admin now wants to be even tougher on the border than Republicans. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1954_Guatemalan_coup_d%27%C3%A9tat https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-57387350 https://news.yahoo.com/biden-may-sign-trump-esque-220052566.html

yo all these people downvoting you is funny as fuck

like you put biden in your penis? just want to make sure i got that right. either way, i've already imagined it and now i have to take some psilocybin to get that out of my mind

who said anything about apathetic? i went to a protest today calling for ceasefire. looks more like the dems are apathetic if they think that there is any sort of justification to continue funding genocide.

NYPD, KKK

IDF, They're all the same!

where the country's money goes is a domestic issue. so far we have given israel over $260 billion dollars for the zionist colonial project. all that money could have been used to prevent the ageing infrastructure that is plagueing the US from crumbling. no instead we give it to a terror state to destroy someone else's infrastructure

All Biden has to do is pick up the phone, say "no more money, no more arms" and he gets everyones vote. People have been protesting this for a LONG time. Longer than since Oct 7th. They don't listen, they have actively silenced and doxxed protestors and even college students. "From the river to the sea, palestine will be free" is not allowed on college campuses. And we are living under so-called democratic president.

So Rashida says vote uncommitted, on a fucking primary, and all of a sudden, lo and behold, we are listened to.

The idea is to get Biden to stop sending all of our money and weapons over there. Painting everyone calling on Biden for a ceasefire as a fool or worse, MAGA, is simply the blue brand of MAGA.
