After all those “lesser of two evils” and “have fun in the camps!” replies I’ve been getting for months for sharing news updates and criticizing an UNPOPULAR US-funded genocide, it’s quite something to see many of those same people begging Biden to drop out. Welcome to the party, I guess.
I think we need to focus on electing whomever Dems put forth at the Convention. Right now, that’s Joe. This is a very bad situation but we must be strong. We may not agree on some things, but we must be steadfast in this. 💙🙏
I volunteer with my local Dems and seeing some of them call for Biden to be replaced last night - after so many of us have been begging for that to happen and being told we were “uneducated in policy” and would be responsible for Trump has me so angry.
We were calling for this in January and were told "oh it's too late he can't be replaced" well read your own words jackasses and know that this is your fault
I hate to say it, but things will be better for marginalized people under Biden. The Democrats do nothing to help them, but the GOP aggressively harms them.
On the other hand, if Trump wins, more people will fight to help marginalized people.
Seeing the exact same people who demanded folks not criticize Biden for a genocide now calling for him to drop out of the race because of a bad debate performance is... something.
“Oh, and while we’re at it, I’m angry that Trump used “Palestinian” as a racist insult against Biden, and Biden had nothing to say about it. I’m not surprised, since Biden cares just as little for Palestinian lives as Trump, but I’m still angry.”
