    Sane people everywhere would prefer that all parties put down their rockets and go the fuck home.

    If that happens Israel just goes back to using the IDF as muscle so “settlers” can steal land from Palestinians…

    Two weeks ago the status quo was still massively fucked up, and going back to it won’t solve anything. It’s just kicking the can down the road

      You’re not wrong, but think of it in terms of Biden tolerating this evil nonsense has the potential to curtail Trump actively encouraging or even instigating more and worse.

      Think of it as less kicking the can down the road, as it is kicking the can out of Trump’s hand before he has a chance to pick it up and do something we’ll all regret more.

        Republicans are going to support fascists really hard, so we have to half ass support them because…

        You kind of lost me after that

        But it seems you’re using that neoliberal logic where Dems should always agree halfway with Republicans
