Yes. Most people want to vote for the outcomes that they prefer and most people want the genocide to end. Ergo most people would vote for an end to the genocide if given the opportunity.

In the minds of these people aiding Israel will either stop the genocide or not necessarily have an effect on it. They’re wrong, but still against the genocide.

So under that logic, Biden, who has expressed opposition to the ongoing operations but continued funding it, is also anti-genocide in the same vein that these voters are.

You'll have to forgive me for not finding that a very 'anti-genocide' or 'changing what we're currently doing' stance.

Biden, who has expressed opposition

Wagging his finger once in a while when an especially horrific atrocity becomes public does nothing when he's simultaneously sending them the weapons used to commit the atrocities and saying that he'll be on their side no matter what.

the ongoing operations

Holy minimizing language, Batman! Committing genocide and other crimes against humanity on a daily basis is not your standard "operations". Implying as much makes you sound like you're in favor of it or at the very least don't think it's anywhere near as bad as it is.

[Biden] is also anti-genocide

Nope. He's literally an active participant in the genocide who has vowed not to stop.

You'll have to forgive me for not finding that a very 'anti-genocide' or 'changing what we're currently doing' stance.

Sure, I'll forgive you for being as dense as a neutron star if you stop demonstrating over and over that you're suffering from a very severe case of the Dunning Kruger effect.

Okay, so literally JUST like the people you're saying are opposed to genocide but support continuing aid.

Great. We're done here.

That we agree on. Have the day you deserve.

Cute. They just support the continuing participation in the genocide. Much better.
