this can't be proven. no matter who wins and what the outcome is vis-a-vis the genocide in gaza, you can't prove what would have happened had another candidate won. it's called a "counterfactual", and it categorically cannot be proven.

Biden “supporting genocide” can’t be proven either. At least if you understand the nuance of the situation and are paying attention to the decades long treaties- what they consist of, and what constitutes protocol.

But don’t let this get in the way of suggesting that only one side of the argument pay attention to semantics.

Fitting name by the way. I like when you people come out and just blatantly ask to be blocked.
