And yet, political and media leaders continue to be outraged at the nature of protests against the genocide rather than the genocide itself. Instead of reckoning with the fact that the U.S. and U.K. governments are actively supporting genocide, our national discourse has turned toward whether protesters are too disruptive, whether festival performers crossed a line, or whether their language makes people uncomfortable. Its always outrage at the words being uttered rather than the bombs being dropped. https://medium.com/@millerlc3/outrage-at-words-silence-on-bombs-our-moral-bankruptcy-exposed-4e4ad4216f36

To be clear, I voted for Kamala. I wasn’t excited about it, but on the whole, I assumed she was the lesser of two evils. With that said, where is the proof that she would be any better than Trump on this issue? She never articulated any divergence from Biden’s policy, despite being given so many opportunities to do so (and Biden’s policy was to give Israel all the weapons, money, and support it asked for).

Biden wholeheartedly supported Israels genocidal destruction of Gaza. Im certainly not going to stop bringing that up. Also, on Gaza or any issue, the idea that a progressive subreddit wouldnt be going after centrist nothing will fundamentally change Biden would be more shocking.

Yes, Trump is complicit and an enabler of Israel’s genocide in Gaza. However, we can’t forget that the Biden administration ran cover for Israel’s actions and provided tons of funding and material support for these war crimes. US involvement and support for Israel’s genocidal campaign is, unfortunately, bipartisan.
