I’m just gonna say it — this “Genocide Joe” thing is the dumbest fucking liberal shit I have seen in years.

Joe Biden can do more to try to rein in Israel, but Biden doesn’t run Israel. He isn’t CIC for IDF. He isn’t deciding what hospital to bomb. He isn’t deciding what border crossings to close.

You know who is pushing the Genocide Joe narrative? The fucking Russians and the Israelis. Why is that? Well, it’s an election year, and Trump is a hard right, pro-Israel puppet.

@mcnado I'm sure Trump will be worse. But Biden could actually stop Israel. Arms sales, monetary aid etc. It would probably even make him more popular. But he won't because Israel is a strategic US military asset for dominating the region. So I think the epithet is fair. Maybe less useful inside the US, during an election year. But building a movement against US imperialism will be more productive than building a movement against Trump, narrowly.
