Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

The solution is to put someone objectively worse in charge then?
If you think the Biden administration is "literal Nazism", your opinion is less than worthless. Read a goddamned history book.
What does this look like to you?
NSFL
Looks like Nazi shit to me.
That looks like a crime against humanity, but that doesn't make it Nazi shit.
Seriously. Read a goddamned history book before you ignorantly go off with stupid takes like this. Comparing atrocities that are committed in war to Nazi shit cheapens the comparison and makes you look like an uneducated fool.
Looks like I'm the only person reading history books here.
You’re the only one spreading misinformation and propaganda.
oh man. I did not realize the biden SS was doing this!!! I somehow thought this was happening from the actions of a completely different country. oh man total nazism from biden for sure /s /S lucifer J satan on a toothpick
Found the undercover Trump supporter.
Do people actually believe that Israel is the United States or do troll games just not put in any effort
People believe Biden bypassed congress to give israel weapons which they are committing Genocide with.
While israel was already committing Genocide.
Biden did not bypass Congress in the sense that Congress would have in any way blocked it, just slightly increased the speed that it happened. What was sold in that deal (anti tank missiles) are not being used in Palestine but are a deterrent for Israel against Iran escalating due to isreals deplorable genocide. The headlines make it seem like anti personal weapons to be used in their genocide but that's not what those are but no one ever thinks about any nuance at all or (gasp) reads the articles.
The deal was tank and mortar shells. The primary ammo used to destroy buildings and commit Genocide with in Gaza. Not anti tank missles.
Biden bypasses Congress to sell tank shells to Israel amid further fighting in Khan Younis
They are anti tank shells. Click bait reporting just says tank shells to make people think exactly what you are claiming. https://www.npr.org/2023/12/09/1218407156/israel-tank-ammunition-sale-gaza-congress-state-department
This is your link.
This is my link
120 mm High Explosive Anti-Tank Multi-Purpose with Tracer tank cartridges
a) They are M830 tank shells
These are the tank shells that israel uses in Gaza to blow up buildings and commit Genocide with in Gaza (and burn israelis to crisps in Kibbutzes). An anti-tank round means it's strong enough to blow up a tank, not that it can only blow up tanks.
b) Those are shells not missles. Anti Tank missiles imply something like a ATGMs.
People believe that Israel is a puppet of the United States in the same way that North Korea is a puppet of China. Israel is seen as a forward operating base of the American empire that provides a beachhead and a port in the middle east for our aircraft carriers and corporations. Without Israel, we would not for decades have had highly securely placed missiles and armaments within range of Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Egypt, etc.
Netanyahu and Likud are nationalists who are pulling on their leash and are making us look terrible in front of the world rn. And Netanyahu would personally likely prefer a world run by Putin rather than the current Western Rules-Based International Order that enforces principles such as human rights, and anti-corruption, and term limits for democratically elected representatives, and judicial independence.
It is unclear how we will address these issues that he has created. But no, people do not see Israel as being a fully independent country in the same way that India or Thailand, for instance, are fully independent countries
No. It’s not. This is blatant misinformation.
It's like you are denying the Holocaust is happening when it's blasted on your TV.
It’s like you don’t know what Nazis are.
I do know, which is why I am able to recognize what mass execution and starvation in a concentration camp actually means. What do you think the Nazi's did?
You don’t know. Because you keep erroneously calling the Biden administration “nazis.” You’ve said this as a matter of fact- MANY TIMES, which is incredibly irresponsible, and a huge slap in the face to the Jewish people that actually died as a result of REAL Nazis.
Find me an unbiased and reliable article that shows AMERICA at war with Palestine. Because if Biden’s “nazi” administration committing genocide, WE’D BE AT WAR.
Either provide this evidence, or stop calling Biden genocidal. It’s blatant right-wing lies designed to disenfranchise those ignorant enough to believe it.
Do this, or don’t bother responding.
that doesn't follow
You don’t think that if Biden were trying to wipe out an entire civilization, for no good reason- everyone on the entire planet would be complete fine with it? M
You also don’t think that if Biden wanted to commit genocide, we’d have American troops there win in a day, and we’d have taken Palestine within a week.
This gENoCiDe jOe propaganda needs to stop.
biden doesn't need to want to commit a genocide to be enabling it. considere what our secretary of state said about it:
it's an american asset committing the genocide. and we could stop it.
Goodbye.
looks like this was a lie

Had to unblock you to report your trolling.
methinks the lady doth protest too much
no, i odn't think people would be fine with an american-enabled genocide. my evidence is the number of people opposed to it.
Not arguing with a troll. Especially the alt of a banned account. Go find something to do.
what account do you think was banned that i am an alt of?
calling me a troll doesnt change that joe is enabling a genocide
Just like our three "special military operations" in Yemen, Iraq and Syria.
The stupidest arguments used by Russians, now used by cultists to defend Genocide.

Remind me when Hitler declared war on the country of Judaism by the way.
So good- you admit America is not at war with Palestine. Now what I want you to do- is look up how long Israel and Palestine have had a conflict.
Report back with your findings.
Yes. Genocide is something different than war. Go do a little reading yourself.
You did not respond to the request so I will ask again: how long has Palestine and Israel been having a conflict?
Try asking again
We’re done here. I said what I needed to in order to disassemble your propaganda.
But he’s not, and we’ve proven that here today.
It’s okay that you’re wrong. And it’s okay that you think incorrectly. You have that right. And the rest of us are continuing to fight for that right you’re currently abusing.
But make no mistake, if Biden loses- you may not have that right anymore to speak against the administration. When Trump rules America- that freedoms is gone.
nothing of the sort has been proven. in fact, the preponderance of evidence is that he is complicit
