    Are you just simply incapable of imagining that but much much worse? Like seriously. I get it dude, what the Israeli government is doing is fucking monstrous. And anyone paying attention to anything knows that not re-electcing Biden will make the nightmare several orders of magnitudes more awful.

    That’s my whole point. Yeah it’s bad right now, but it can and will get worse if Trump is elected. This is a fact.

      There is no restraint placed on Israel, they are doing exactly what they would do under a Trump admin because you can’t do less than nothing.

      It’s like saying “I know we left the door unlocked and open and that’s how the burglers got in, but can you imagine how much worse it would’ve been if we had removed the door from the hinges?”

      I can only assume you haven’t actually been paying attention to what’s happening in Gaza. It is a genocide. Israel is doing exactly what they want with no restriction.

        Trump literally moved our embassy to Jerusalem. You’re a fucking fool if you think Trump and the psychotic dispensationalists that make up his base wouldn’t make that situation much much worse, then I honestly do not know what to tell you. These people literally want more of this shit because they think it means the rapture is coming. And yes, that is a significant portion of his financial base. That isn’t fringe Republican stuff anymore.

        Shit is really fucking bad over there, but if you don’t think it can get worse (and do so with direct aid and support of the US government), then you must understand very little about human behavior.

          Ohhh nooo, the embassy! frowny_face.jpg

          Surely it’s so egregious an action that Biden will reverse it any day now because he’s totally different than Donald Trump on Israel. At least Biden is only actively funding a genocide and not moving our embassy to Jerusalem.

          I bet Trump would vote for legislation making it illegal to criticize Israel. Good thing he’s not in office.
