@mondoweiss @palestine @israel "But if you don't still go and vote for him then Trump will send like $10 billion - how can you be so cruel and do this to Palestine?" - Democrat supporters

Screw both capitalist parties

@evan ...wow. This is seriously the kind of conspiracy theory Trump fans usually endorse. Biden is flat out supporting and funding a genocide, arresting and shooting with rubber bullets anyone who protests. And democrats are spreading rumours that somehow Trump is behind this? This is just sad. And this is the reason Trump will win, because Biden and his fans have repeatedly proved that they are not any better.

@evan the obvious difference with these cases is that Israel is a close ally of the current US administration. And it's not Israel's genocide that hurts Biden's campaign, but the fact that Biden is actively supporting the genocide.

@evan I think Democrats are the ones who are worried about what hurts "President Biden's re-election prospects", and want to misguide people from thinking that, above all, it's because of Biden's own actions. This is a very devious attempt at putting the blame elsewhere, at a time when thousands of children are being killed with Biden's blessings and weapons.

@evan truth is I was triggered by the way the question was written. I believe you had no bad intention, but sometimes even questions are not innocent. For example if I ask "Are palestinians fighting Israel because they are antisemitic", this implies things. In a way, your poll's question could also clearly imply that a) it's the war that harms Biden's re-election prospects, and not that he supports it, and b) that Biden (the current president arming Israel) has no control over the situation, and Netanyahu does what he wants, possibly backed by Trump. Which could make sense if Netanyahu wasn't already fully backed by Biden in this. Russia is a superpower that can try to influence other countries, just like USA does all over the world (Greece included - Russia also has its people here, but their influence is close to zero compared to the USA); Israel is nothing without USA's support.
