Muslim leaders shun invitation to end Ramadan at White House | Arkansas Democrat Gazette

WASHINGTON -- Last year, President Joe Biden hadn't even spoken a word at the White House celebration of Ramadan before someone shouted out "we love you." Hundreds of Muslims were there to mark the end of the holy month that requires fasting from sunrise to sunset.

        Literally the only people I’ve seen unironically say “genocide joe” are white bougeyviks who’s families haven’t known genocide except as a headline in centuries.

        Cool I must be the definitely one in a million counter example lol.

        Both world news communities (.world and .ml) are filled with “genocide joe” comments bruh, and not from insane fascists.

          No just useful idiot white “leftists” who think doing shit that helps the fascists win is peak anti-fascist praxis.

          No, just the douchewaffles who are trying to use it as an excuse to let the even worse guy do it here too.

          But hey why let an actual Palestinian’s condemnation get in the way of fetishizing our corpses as set dressing for your white savior complex?

          You self titled leftists always prefer PoC as martyrs for your cause over being agents for our own anyways.

            It’s quite easy to be mad at Joe Biden for enabling this war in Gaza while also recognizing Trump would be worse. I wrote to Biden yesterday telling him that while he has my vote in November, he shouldn’t expect any financial support from me while American citizens are killed by (likely) American munitions.

            A healthy response to bad policy is never “whatabout the other guy?!?” it’s to put pressure on the policy maker to change their stance.

              Why do I always hear this line when I criticize vote strikers and punishment voting and other white left bullshit?

              This is like the reversal of “white people accuse you of being Un-American when you protest against racism.”, “White leftists accuse you of being pro-genocide and/or anti-criticism when you attack vote striking and punishment voting.”

                I said I was voting for him so I don’t know what your complaint even is. It’s not just white people mad about this. The article is literally about Muslims refusing to meet with the president.

            nobody is doing that.

            biden has probably already did more material harm than trump at this point. if the us was a real democracy neither would be allowed to run.
