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.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- 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.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). 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. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Either not sending the meme would have stopped the bombing, in which case you should just tell me that is the case or sending the meme would not have stopped the bombing, in which case you posting this article was pointless.
I'm guessing you won't tell me which it is because you're not interested in people asking you questions.
You asked questions and I answered to the best that I could.
It is okay that you do not agree with my view points on this topic.
Why ask questions you know the answer to?
I agian reinstate the reasoning behind my post: to call out the bombing in Rafah during the Super Bowl.
That is a lie. Not only did you not answer, you said you would not answer: "I am sure those questions are important to you, but to me they are a distraction from the OG reason I shared this article."
For the third time:
"If Biden had not sent that meme, would those people still be alive?"
"how much time and effort do you think it takes for his media team to post a meme?"
I think I understand what you are trying to get at by asking these questions, but I am also trying to point out how Genocide Joe is helping Israel.
The meme that was sent out helped continue the talks about Palestinian deaths during the Super Bowl.
Genocide Joe funding Israel has gotten 25,000 to 35,000 civilians killed.
I am pointing out again that Genocide Joe could stop these wars anytime, but choices to continue to fund them.
Really, those deaths were all dependent on Joe Biden? That's pretty wild, because from what I hear his admin has been trying to get Israel to not do a shitload of war crimes, but since we don't actually own Israel as a client state, they can do pretty much what they want to.
Good to know that he personally ordered the killings, and directed the Israeli troops, that everything that happened is all him. It's impressive how well he runs the entire planet for a senile guy, huh?
I knew you wouldn't answer them. Such easy questions to answer too. If you're here in good faith.
That's a lot of posts to avoid answering pretty simple questions.
A) Would those people be alive if Biden's social media team hadn't sent that meme?
B) How much effort do you think Biden, or any of his cabinet who actually make decisions, spent on this? Several seconds approving it if that?
The meme helped keep the talk on Palestine, due to the bombing in Rafah, during the Super Bowl.
Genocide Joe is funding the deaths of civilians, which should be of importance to people that are anti-war.
Yes, I understand that they are simple questions, I am staying on topic about Palestinians deaths happening on Genocide Joe's watch.
You could just write out the more accurate and shorter: "those questions demonstrate the silliness of this post and as such I refuse to answer them!"
