    It’s true, but not how they’re portraying it.

    Israel is absolutely committing genocide.

    Russian propagandists are highlighting it every time Biden’s name is mentioned to convince Democrats to abstain from voting.

    It’s been the Republican play forever. They don’t need to convince you that Trump is good, just that Biden doesn’t deserve your vote. That’s enough for Trump to win.

        They also keep on stoking Bernie Sanders as an excuse to not vote, while managing to marginalize or dismiss Bernie’s own words of urgency that the right-wing/republicans represent a clear and present danger, that one’s unmistakeable civic duty is to register to vote, and cast that vote for Biden/Democrats in November.

        They did it in '16, tried it in '20, are still doing it. Pointing at Bernie, while keeping his voice on “mute”.
