This piece from @jackmirkinson.bsky.social sums up where I’m at this morning. :: “I am particularly outraged at being told to excuse genocide on behalf of someone who can barely string a sentence together at the most consequential possible moment.”

After all those “lesser of two evils” and “have fun in the camps!” replies I’ve been getting for months for sharing news updates and criticizing an UNPOPULAR US-funded genocide, it’s quite something to see many of those same people begging Biden to drop out. Welcome to the party, I guess.

“Oh, and while we’re at it, I’m angry that Trump used “Palestinian” as a racist insult against Biden, and Biden had nothing to say about it. I’m not surprised, since Biden cares just as little for Palestinian lives as Trump, but I’m still angry.”

Literally the only thing they agreed on is Israel genociding Palestinians and being the most pro-cop

I guess I’m more upset that this feeble old man is materially supporting an ongoing genocide.

How many seconds to midnight? Our control over who the House chooses as president is limited, but not absent. 54 different contests for electors. Stretch as far as we can to agree with as many people as possible in each contest. The House resulting from those voters will decide between three.
You sound morally lost, throwing the baby out with the bath water. Good luck finding justice in a world without American values, once we have trump and lose our democracy.

Your impotent moral outrage isn't going to make voters feel like Biden is capable of being president.
I want Biden replaced on the ballot, and have for several months. If you think that means voting for Biden over trump isn’t the right thing to do, you’re lost.

If you think voting for genocide is a plan for the best outcome, you’re lost.

We’re allowed to vote for which murderous, cognitively impaired white fossil will have control of this government every four years. That democracy?

I like the meme but it'd be hitting closer to the mark if it said "I can ignore genocide [...]" or "I can deny genocide [...]". I haven't seen anyone openly defending genocide PER SE. But plenty have said "At least he's not as bad as Trump / Trump would also back Israel" and/or "Not as important".🙄

The original line is, “I can excuse racism, but I draw the line at animal cruelty.” And it’s a meme—it doesn’t have to be reworded until it has the most accurate political meaning.

It's already happening on here, some people just can't get enough punching left. The arguments don't even make sense, leftists have the least power over any of this

Seeing the exact same people who demanded folks not criticize Biden for a genocide now calling for him to drop out of the race because of a bad debate performance is... something.

Genocide is fine, they draw the line at halting vocal delivery.

From a man known to have a speech impediment. Literally a disability that makes forming clear words more difficult than it is for most of us. That’s the thing so-called “progressives” are now mad at him for? Having a speech disability? We’ve known he has one all along.

his debate performance last night was not because of his stutter
Avatar
But his stutter did factor in. He used to be quicker and better at hiding it.
Avatar
Management of a stutter often involves pausing when you feel a stutter coming to choose a different word that won’t trip you up.
Avatar
What speech impediment makes you talk about "immigrants raping women" when asked about abortion? Cause I know people with stutters and tourettes and that never happens to them
Avatar
Pausing and changing what you’re going to say next is in fact one of the common ways people manage a stutter, because it involves tripping up on specific words.

“he only looked bad because of his stutter” doesn’t make the electoral college give you 20 bonus EVs no matter how unfair it is

uwu be nice to the president committing genocide that’s the thing so called “liberals” are fine with

He has done speech therapy and learned to manage it. Please learn how stutters actually work before running your mouth.

I know this is hard for you, but progressives are mad at him for genocide. Your ableist lib buddies are the ones trying to get him to drop out for their perception of his inability to speak. I genuinely understand you want to blame any and everything other than you backed a bad egg, but yo.
