While rebutting another post here on Lemmy, I ran into this. This says exactly what I want to say.

I am not a friend of Biden’s Administration. I think they drug their feet over a variety of things ranging from holding Trump and his goons accountable for January 6th through rulemaking on issues like OTC Birth Control and abortion rights, and yes, I think he’s too quick to please big business. But then I remember what the alternative is, and … well, disappointed in Biden or not, I’m voting for him. Because my wife is a Black bisexual goth woman, four strikes under Team Pepe’s tent. And I have my own strikes for marrying her as a White dude, and respecting her right to not have kids since she doesn’t want them is another strike against me. And I care about my Non-Christian, Gay, Transgender, and Minority friends, and will never willingly subject them to Team Pepe.

    I love how people don’t quote what trump fully said about the israel issue and just the “finish it up” why don’t you also quote the part where he said you have to get peace? Why don’t you also quote that it was a departure and that he didn’t condition it on the release of hostages? (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/01/us/politics/trump-israel-conservative.html)

    This attempt to show biden as better is pathetic when biden has not been kind to any immigrants and he has slaughtered many in the mid east. Im sorry to break it to you but neither are your friends and this game of “better of the two evils” doesn’t work when you have someone committing genocide.

      Normally I’d give the benefit of the doubt on this, but with the context of the other statements on “blood poisoning” so closely matching Hitler’s, I’m calling bullshit.

      Yeah, the Nazis wanted “peace” as well, in the form of the Aryan race being the only on the planet.

      That implies I’m trying to show Biden is good. I’m not. Biden is terrible.

      But I’d rather have terrible than terrible and dead.
