      “Holds no power” <- when did I ever say this?

      Thanks again for doing the typical tankie thing of trying to quote me on words I never said. Lovely good faith discussion here.

      Biden must have stolen your tact lmao.

          Why is it whenever your ilk comes out to have a “discussion” it’s always absolutes and false quotations?

            It’s because these kids don’t understand that there are the bullshit bandwagon socialism they’ve subscribed to can only succeed in theory. And they don’t know theory isn’t really- so when they attempt to debate political topics- they have no idea what they’re talking about.

            Because-

            Biden controls the universe and singlehandedly killed all the dinosaurs after stubbing his little toe on a coffee table.

            Either he has power and can be held accountable, or his power is limited and not voting for him doesn’t matter. It’s logic.

              Not voting for him gets you trump. People have explained this to you already. Many times. You refuse to understand this. Why?

              Why do you think people who are CLEARLY smarter than you, and more well versed in politics are all wrong, and YOU are the one that is right?

              How is it that everyone that has tried to reason with you is wrong?

                Wait. You make me participate in a system (capitalism) that I did not choose, and offer me no alternatives. Then, demand that I have to vote to prevent this system from collapsing. And, somehow this is all my fault?

                Stop blaming your fellow humans and start blaming the system (capitalism).

                  Nope. I’ll blame you and the rest of the trendy tankies that are staying home and letting Trump win. . Trust me- you’ll understand why everyone hates you when you grow up some. Sure… It’ll be cringy. And you’ll probably feel a bit of shame- but hopefully it’ll be a good learning experience.

              The reality is he has very little power over the events people are upset about but a lot of power over other important things he’s doing fairly well at.

              There is no good choice in the Middle East, if he pulled out of the historical agreements with Israel and left them defenceless then he’d get even more people blaming him for a genocide, or the US would have to step in directly when the amount of dead Israelies reached a point public opinion demanded it…

              People already complain that Israel created Hamas and when you look into those arguments they stem from articles saying that in prior conflicts Israel has stopped before completely defeating them… this is a situation with no good move. Even if some people got their wish and all the Jewish people were killed it’s not going to solve all the issues in the region, the current situation is possibly the path with the least amount of human tragedy and suffering that we have available.

                Well, that’s not anti-Semitic.

                  In case it was missed I’m suggesting that there are anti Semitic people who want that, obviously I don’t

                    So, a genocide. How magnanimous.

              You keep using that word but I don’t think it means what you think it means.
