The Biden administration, in alliance with the fascist-led Republican Party, is criminalizing political opposition to the Gaza genocide, the greatest war crime of the 21st century.

      As if libs will protest

      This will catch more comrades than libs, and the libs will gleefully clap saying they should have voted for Biden

      Libs will only realize what they’ve created when there’s no one left to protest their persecution by fascists because all the other groups with conviction have been targeted

      We all know the poem

        There aren’t enough leftists to shake a stick at.

        These protests on college campuses are most likely still populated with libs. If there wasn’t a genocide going on, they would have been at brunch

          True, but there is and they chose to risk arrest, suspension, and eviction to stand against it. It’s likely most aren’t leftists, but this act of protest could be the beginning of a new page of political consciousness for them

          I’d hesitate to derogatorily call any of the students libs

            Time will tell, but the cynic in me has seen these things play out a bunch of times with little to no results.

            Here’s to hoping.

    It’s not “Biden”

    He can’t tie his shoes

    It’s the oligarchy, the capitalist state, Lockheed, and your lib neighbors that somehow can accept genocide as long as they aren’t white

      Biden’s entire career has been marked by extreme Zionism. If senility is used to excuse his actions that are in line with what he has always believed, it’s like excusing Hitler’s role in the holocaust because he used meth heavily.

        Yeah but low key you’re blaming Ronald McDonald for a bad hamburger as bill Hicks would say. The great man theory of history from a Marxist perspective is suspect at best. Biden is a product. Cut, paid for. You think shillary or even Trump would have said stop the genocide? I doubt it.

          That’s not the point. No one is saying Biden is a great man. We’re saying he’s not completely impotent. He’s aware of what’s going on. He agrees with it. He’s spent his whole career supporting it and helping to make it happen.

          All of them are guilty. The CEO of McDonalds, the past CEOs, every district and branch manager, anyone at corporate who ever signed a form making a worse hamburger. I hold Biden as accountable as I do any other democrat or any republican because he has an active individual role in it. He isn’t a great man, he’s just one more guilty man. His guilt is especially magnified because he is currently the only person in the country who could end the genocide with one phone call that he individually refuses to make. If someone else was in that chair or had a phone which could also make that call, they would be just as guilty.

          It’s not great man theory to say Biden is a unique piece of shit who deserves to die lmao. Jesus. I swear some people think personal responsibility is nonexistent just because some piece of shit thinks one man is responsible for everything. I don’t care if there are 500 Bidens right after him. You should still kill baby Hitler if given the Choice because 1 dead fascist means 1 dead fascist.

          Biden is a functionary of capital but does wield real power. If he wanted to, he could force Israel to end the assault on Gaza.

          The fact that he doesn’t want to do that is important, and is part of why he’s supported by capital, but it doesn’t change the fact that he bears responsibility and that if someone else had that power they might not have that blood on their hands. Biden should be tried and found guilty of war crimes, for example.

          Also Biden’s history and personality do make a difference. Capital shapes broad strokes and only occasionally makes specific asks. Biden is a raging Zionist and bigot that gladly supports the state department, intelligence, propaganda, and military apparatus in their backing of Israel. He appoints relatively competent people that work together.

          That there are hundreds of ghouls waiting in the wings doesn’t change the personal monstrosity of it.

      lib neighbors that somehow can accept genocide as long as they aren’t white

      Correction:

      Libs accept genocide as long as it’s done by Good Countries. If a genocide is against non-whites but in Bad Country (or alleged to be happening), then they won’t shut the fuck up
