I'm not denying that Isreal is committing a genocide. They are, and they should be stopped.

You are asserting that Biden is a fascist, which is simply incorrect. Biden is not attempting to insert himself as an authoritarian dictator in Israel, and to imply that he is makes you sound like a fool.

Trump, however, is attempting to do that in the United States. That is why Trump is a fascist candidate.

He's sending munitions to a nation in the midst of an ethnic cleanse.

Imagine if Clinton had handed Milosevic a fleet of F-16s and tomahawk missiles. You don't even have to thought experiment this on Bush, who straight up armed and encouraged Sunni and Shia militia groups to butcher one another as part of COINTELPRO in Iraq.

Trump, however, is attempting to do that in the United States.

And here's the real nut of it. Biden's campaign of genocide abroad is fine (maybe even good, depending on your view of Arabs) because it's not happening to you, personally.

Trump is scary because he might take what Biden's doing abroad and bring it home.

Well, I'm already living in Texas. I already have a fucking gun to my head. Ken Paxton is almost certainly going to be our next governor and it's not like Greg Abbott is shy about ordering his State Troopers to drown a few babies.

I'm already here and it fucking sucks. And Biden hasn't lifted a god's damned finger to stop it. Neither did Obama, for that matter.

Enjoy your next four years, assholes. Looks like your chickens are coming home to roost.
