Israel committing genocide is not the same thing as Biden supporting it, and conflating the two is completely dishonest.
You can rightly condemn what Netanyahu’s government is doing while recognizing that the Biden administration was stuck trying to manage an official ally, push aid corridors, and broker hostage deals to stop a wider war.
You want to see what actually supporting it looks like? Look at Trump telling Bibi to “finish the problem” and openly treating the annihilation and displacement of Palestinians like real estate development.
Lumping Biden, who was actively pushing for restraint and humanitarian corridors, in with an authoritarian who cheers on the slaughter is the exact lazy, cartoonish framing I was calling out.
Edit: To be clear, I am separating being a bad president from being a bad person. Biden was bad. Obama was mediocre, a big part of why being that he used weapons way too many times. But bad policies and failed presidencies don’t automatically make someone a cartoon villain.
