      And if it weren’t for those ‘tankies’, you’d still have your genocidal baby murdering loser on the ticket.

          Damn I was wondering when the person against Biden dropping out who I talked to bit ago went. You’re certainly still convinced Biden was the choice right?

            I’m afraid you have me at a disadvantage, I don’t recall our conversation. My opinion has definitely changed on this topic though. I’m glad he dropped out.

          Considering anyone who criticized Biden was labeled as a “tankie,” I’d say the tankies at the NYT and CNN probably played a role in it, yes.

        You actually think Biden dropped out because of opposition from Stalinists and Leninists?

        Once again, horseshoe theory prevails. Both the far left and the far right think that Biden answers to communists.

          No, that’s just a plain-out exceptionally right wing American-brain dead theory, the same it would be if you replaced “Biden” with “Trump” in that text, for Communists, especially outside the West…

          Of what illusion were their stances not antithetical to each other, in foreign policy especially?

      How? First off, Harris isn’t Biden. No one is confused by this, but maybe you are because you think Harris must have the exact same stances and opinions as Biden. Second, it wasn’t just “tankies” who were upset at Biden’s enthusiastic support for genocide. Anyone with any shred of decency is against genocide. Finally, people like you claimed that Biden was our best chance to beat Trump and insisted that we all had to throw our support behind him because Trump is worse and that anyone criticizing Biden for supporting genocide is a tankie. Turns out that him dropping out to make way for a better candidate actually works and many Americans are excited that we don’t have to support such a garbage candidate just because the other side has a worse candidate. The positive reaction to Biden dropping out was immediate and clear.

          Biden was sending weapons and billions of dollars to israel while faking support to Palestinians (the shitty pier which didn’t help much or last long was the biggest sign) in an attempt to contain backlash just so he could keep sending the weapons and billions of dollars to israel. Noticing something so obvious doesn’t make me high, it just means I have a brain.

          I mean it pretty much contradicts her statement about not being silent. The protestors are not being silent, and she condemns them more harshly than the genocide they protest. Also, she has been conspicuously silent thus far as her administration acts in full support of the genocide.
