    Do you have a source on the fighting for segregation - first I’ve heard?

    I strongly disagree with Biden enabling genocide - America isn’t the global police, the UNSC are impotent, and even if you isolate to just the US you’re looking at 35 odd years of US strategic interests and policy, dependence on foreign fuel (and denial to other superpowers), global trade chokepoints, a military industrial complex that touches every part of the US economy and American wishes to be a beacon of liberty. No 3 year president can fight that and maintain a stable country.

    Yup, Bernie sanders would have been a much better choice but he’s not a choice that can be made - you can have either blundering buffoon or egotistical, sexist, racist criminal as the most powerful person in the world.

      Joe Biden didn’t just compromise with segregationists. He fought for their cause in schools, experts say. - NBC

      This has nothing to do with “world police”, Biden and America are literally sending weapons and money to Israel. They’ve routinely shielded them from the UN, and will intervene with force if anyone tries to stop Israel.

      To quote Biden himself, “I am a Zionist”. He doesn’t even try to hide how evil he is.

      You can either have a shit option or a shit option, you will never have a good option unless you stop supporting the status quo.

      The US funds and arms Israel, which they use to enforce their apartheid, a kind of segregation, as well as carry out the genocide of Palestinians. Biden enthusiastically supplies these weapons knowing they are used to kill innocent civilians every single day.
