The poll found 50% of Democrats approve of how Biden has navigated the conflict while 46% disapprove — and the two groups diverge substantially in their views of U.S. support for Israel. Biden’s support on the issue among Democrats is down slightly from August, as an AP-NORC poll conducted then found that 57% of Democrats approved of his handling of the conflict and 40% disapproved.
I think objectively doesn’t mean what you think it means. But more importantly, even if you’re right, that doesn’t mean people who support Biden’s position agree that your’e right. Just look at literally the other reply to me that agreed with me at length.
I called you on your bad-faith accusation that Democratic voters “approve of enabling genocide”, and nothing in your reply to me reduces the accuracy of what I called you on.
I get it, you have an opinion. I also get it, anyone who doesn’t share that opinion has a 1-digit IQ. But we still get to get to have an opinion.
Another person could say “If we don’t nuke Israel, we’re compplicit”. Why should a good-faith voter differentiate between those claims? I t is indefensible to judge a well-meaning majority and say false statement about their position just because they don’t agree with you. You sounding like Trump right now.
Shit. I’m out of tinfoil for this cake I’m baking. Can I have some of yours?
It’s a fact that the tack Biden is taking amounts to enabling genocide. Whether you know that or not, saying you approve of his handling of the situation is saying that you approve of enabling genocide no matter if you know it or not.
In other words:
Biden’s plan is objectively enabling genocide
Some people who don’t consider themselves in favor of enabling genocide support Biden
The thing that those people say they support is enabling genocide, no matter how ignorant of reality or in denial they are.
Curious who made Viking Hippie the sole arbiter of truth. How many experts disagreeing with you makes it less “we’re all objectively enabling genocide”?
What if I think Viking Hippie is “objectively enabling genocide”? It’s a fact (ok, it’s just a thought experiment). That means I get to say anyone that agrees with you is “objectively enabling genocide”, right?
3 days to come back with “you’re wrong because it’s arrogant to be confident that you’re you’re right when people are paid to be wrong”? Damn, you’re really bad at this! 😂
With all due respect, when your opinion is “your argument AND the supermajority is wrong because I said so”, you don’t leave an opening for anything more constructive.
I don’t make a good Soyjak
What supermajority would that be? Only Republicans surpass the 60% threshold and surely you don’t consider them arbiters of truth.
As for what I’m basing my argument on, it’s the Geneva Convention and countless UN motions defeated by ridiculous vetoes from a partisan US delegation.
What the Israeli government is doing is by definition several kinds of war crimes, including genocide and ethnic cleansing.
That’s what Biden is supporting by supporting the Israeli government so, whether you’re aware of it and generally ok with genocide or not, supporting what Biden is doing is by definition supporting the enabling of genocide.
Do you get it now or are your partisan blinders so thick as to make you ideologically incapable of understanding that those you support can sometimes do indefensible things?
