It's weird that all the "genocide Joe" posters I've seen lately have all been coming from lemmnsfw.com.

Anyway. Let's reframe this like a trolley problem.

Imagine you are Biden, you have zionists in your party in both houses, zionists in the DNC, zionists among your donors as well as an array of people with vested interests in the military industry.

Now you can either try and hard line aid to Israel, get completely dicked on by the entire party, lose donors to the Trump campaign and make an already uncomfortablely tight race even worse for yourself and potentially hand Trump the presidency who in turn gives Israel the go ahead to wipe Palestine off the map. Knowing that even if you don't give Trump the win Israel won't stop their genocide.

Or you can just work in soft pressure, keep your keys to power happy and make what difference you can by doing stuff like sending aid that doesn't piss off the zionists and maybe save the Palestinians from a Trump backed Israel?

Fuck the keys to power.

I'm still waiting for the trolley to show up
