      Palestinians are literally starving to death because this administration gave your tax dollars to the AMIC to arm Israel for a genocide. The entire world sees what we’re doing and abhors it. I don’t pretend it would be somehow better under Trump, but this is not good by any definition.

        The only things that the Biden administration has done that’s bad is genocide obviously, but a little genocide never hurt anybody… I guess you could try blaming him for inflation or gas prices, or the fallout of COVID-19, but that would be kind of dumb

        You can, of course, say he hasn’t done enough, which wouldn’t be wrong, but the things he’s done have had a pretty positive effect on the country and have brought us at least a little closer to the left – even with an opposing congress. I can’t say I like how he treats, say, nationalism and the Middle East, but he’s at least somewhat redeemed himself from just being a “moderate Republican” I would say. At least his administration has brought in officials who are tougher on corporations, even if he’s still a corporate Democrat.

          See the problem I have with the Israel argument is that a Trump admin would go even harder on supporting Israel, soooo

          The Biden regime still routinely kidnaps immigrant children from their families and puts them all in concentration camps.

          “A little bit left” my whole ass.

            Could you give me a recent source about these kidnappings? And if it’s the unaccompanied immigrant children which haven’t been kidnapped, then please don’t even bother.

                “The Supreme Court ordered Abbott to let Border Patrol remove the razor wire barriers. Instead—acting in defiance of the president, the Supreme Court, and federal authorities—Abbott installed more.” … Then some stuff about congress blocking decisions… dunno… Doesn’t sound like it’s all on Biden. Especially since, like most of the stuff that people are complaining about, it stated with Trump. And it’s been getting better just not fast enough. Which, again, not saying Biden is doing his best, but it doesn’t sound like it’s all his fault, does it?

                  You literally didn’t read the full article did you

                  like most of the stuff that people are complaining about, it stated with Trump

                  Oh, well if it just started under Trump, that’s fine then. As long as Trump did it first, it is okay if Biden continues doing it.

                    Maybe I misunderstood but how is it Biden continuing doing it when they’re actively trying to improve the situation but congress is blocking change and even when they sued Texas and the supreme court ordered them to take down the fences they still put up more because of the gop scum governor? If after all that you still think it’s all Biden’s fault then whatever, one of us is wrong, neither will admit it, but at least those that read the comments can make up their own minds. Have a nice day.

            I don’t remember a time where kidnapping people and putting them into concentration camps away from their families made something not left, actually it seems pretty common in former and current communist countries lol…

            but actually i meant “slightly more left” in the sense of economic-social matters, not… killing or kidnapping people matters.

              The funniest part of this shitty rhetoric is you thinking that former communist countries are left wing. No, when the US overthrows your left wing government and installs a right wing dictatorship/psuedodemocracy thats actually a right wing system now.

              What an incredible admission to not knowing shit about dick and still being ignorant enough to think your opinion matters.

                You think Lenin and his government wasn’t left-wing? What the hell? And you think Mao wasn’t a leftist? Are you just going to deny that any authoritarian government was actually leftist?

                No, when the US overthrows your left wing government and installs a right wing dictatorship/psuedodemocracy thats actually a right wing system now.

                When did I say anything to the contrary? What specific country could you possibly be referring to that you think I’m talking about?

                What an incredible admission to not knowing shit about dick and still being ignorant enough to think your opinion matters.

                Wtf are you on about lol. You’re crazy

                  You used present tense for former communist countries.

                  Also, your whole thing is literally just repackaged blood libel about those “judeo-bolsheviks”. Which is less funny but even more pathetic.

                    ??? are you just resorting to bringing up completely unrelated shit to escape embarrassment? I imagined context could make it clear but mentioning “former communist countries” I was speaking of communist countries in history which formerly existed, but now no longer exist. If I meant countries which were communist but now aren’t, I would have specified “formerly communist countries”. Why would you even think it was implying that a country being communist in the past means it’s leftist in the present? How do you reason that?
