      Conducting a genocide automatically removes all “progressive” credibility as it’s the worst and least progressive thing you can do.

      Calling him progressive, let alone “The most progressive” is an insult to the very idea of “progress” and legitimizes genocide.

      Grab a piece of paper and list the ways in which he was “progressive” and explain, on paper, how they excuse his genocide. Read it back out loud.

      Also maybe stop insulting people, calling them morons, for not ignoring his genocide.

          If you already made and read back a list of all of Bidens progressive policies and the ways they excuse his genocide in the 4 minutes it took you to respond, then that itself proves both that he wasn’t very progressive and also it doesn’t take much to get you personally on board with genocide.

      remember when Joe Biden stepped in to stop a federal railway strike, which was asking for more (basically any) time off, an end to precision scheduled railroading, and for basic safety regulations and maintenance, and then two weeks later a train derailed in Ohio from faulty brakes and bathed the area in hydrogen chloride, benzene, and phosgene, causing an ecological disaster that made the nearby area hazardous to live in?

      that’s progress, baby!! 🎉🎉

      Supplying a genocide is pretty terrible, not to mention the utterly insufficient to downright harmful domestic policy and the incredibly warhawkish foreign policy. Biden did his job as a steward of the US Empire more nakedly than Obama did, though certainly less naked than Trump now.

      It shouldn’t be surprising that leftists are critical of liberal imperialists.

      Did Joe not send Israel almost all of the bombs and other resources it’s using to commit genocide on the Palestinian people?

          I don’t care about your previous presidents. I care that Joe is responsible for a genocide on the Palestinians and that you seem to think that that’s a petty issue.
