    That’s how you change a Biden vote to a vote for no one. Need to stop funding that genocide stuff

        If the choices are “enthusiastic genocide” and “genocide with some light tut-tutting”, then democracy failed.

          Democracy didn’t fail us, corporate media fucked us.

          A very large portion of what any of us know about a given politician or policy is from corporate media and they absofuckinglutley have a desired outcome even if it’s as simple as using misleading ragebait just to get views. It leaves us less capable of making good decisions.

      If the US completely cut off aid to Israel it would make 0 difference. We should cut them off foreign aid since they don’t need it, as they are definitely a rich country, but they have tons of money and even if they didn’t the current leadership in Israel would spend whatever they had. I don’t think that anything short of a hostile invasion will get Israel to stop but I’d love to be wrong.

      With that being said Congress - not the president - allocates this money. Look at how many votes Bernie’s bill to attempt to put restrictions on that aid got, neither party is going to do more than agitate people online about it.
