Those laws all suck and they’re along the same vein as the laws that Biden had voted for and supported in the past (ie doma, 10450, dadt).
The definition of genocide is the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular group with the aim of destroying that group; and nothing you have shared matches that description.
I’m going to assume that you want a source in the tariffs and not the green initiatives.
it’s literally a new topic in the news and takes less than 30 seconds on Google to find.
… All you’re saying to me here is that the queer genocide candidate that will also support the Palestinian genocide is fine, but the one not participating in a genocide of queer people is bad.
I’m not supporting either candidate and there is no queer genocide in the United States nor will there be; speaking in hyperbole makes you seem unhinged and I want to trade ideas w someone who speaks in facts.
Politicinaa adapting their positions to be more in-line with the will of the people in order to secure votes is exactly how representative democracy is supposed to work.
which biden will also do, as he has done, if project 2025 manages to succeed.
sexual liberation and identity has fallen in and out of favor in american hegemony before and it will happen again; go ahead and keep moving that goal post.
the immigration thing is literally in the news right now.
doing anything negative to queer people would make him lose votes with the democratic base, so he doesn’t; just like he’s done in the past.
i will not vote for trump
Sorry… most of the genocides have already been committed?
that biden enabled: yes
Migrants have been rounded up and forcibly deported en masse?
biden is doing this right now
Trans people have been forced to go underground? Queer people have been erased from history?
biden has advocated doing this for decades and his token gestures have only served to give bigots legal protection for their bigotry.
That’s what you don’t mind happening apparently.
that’s why i don’t want to see more by voting for a person with a decades long track record of doing so.
What a ridiculous thing to say. Biden doesn’t have a plan to put all the migrants into concentration camps
he doesn’t need a plan; he’s currently doubling down on trump’s plan.
or to suppress queer people or anything else in Project 2025’s list of goals, which Trump will implement.
biden has advocated for this his entire career and has only made token gestures otherwise to get votes; hyperbolic arguments are moot when you’ve already survived them.
So either you are not aware of Project 2025 and how it will lead to another genocide, possibly more than one, or you only care about one genocide.
they don’t have enough time to catch up to biden’s level of enabling genocides before the next election. also most of the other genocides have already been committed so it makes sense to care about the active ones.
american facism is already here; biden and trump are merely two different flavors of it.
Any time you have rapid progress on any issue, you’ll have people whose position changed dramatically in that time period.
By continuing to villify those who change their position to join you in the fight you make it more difficult to gather support.
given his history and his most recent actions: it’s clear he hasn’t changed and that progress is nothing more than transparent attempts to gain votes; as he has always done.
also again: biden has enabled more genocides than than trump ever has.
biden is actively enabling a genocide right now and has done something similar for several others in the last few decades as a senator; meanwhile trump has only fantasized about helping a genocide.
it would be an easier choice it he would just stop helping genociders.
I’ve done what this man did a lot of times with no penalty
same here and i would be in his same position if don’t ask don’t tell hadn’t become a very publicized thing; instead i’m only scarred 6x over by the shit they’ve done to gay people that the lemmyverse likes to ignore for some reason
i’m expounding upon my difficulty in justifying my vote for biden; before the genocide i was going to hold my nose and do it and now i’m no longer sure i can even do that.
biden’s the only one to invest in green energy afaik and then he turned around a effectively banned truly affordable electric vehicles for around $10k with 100% tariffs; among other things.
that would probably be enough for me too if biden hadn’t fucked my life 6 times so far; while trump has only accidentally helped.
trump’s asshattery at creating trade wars backfired on american companies and that forced them to hire new people including me; that enabled me to move away from austin texas and i’ll be thankful for that for the rest of my life.
brown in this case
i suspect there’s too few in this country to see these kinds of groups.
i got so high earlier tonight that it felt like it was the first time for too brief of a moment.
i realized that the shit biden put me through sucked and that i wouldn’t wish it on anyone and now i have an infinitesimally small chance of helping make sure that it doesn’t happen to anyone else. plus it helps the progress made last a little bit longer this time around the world’s historical political pendulum. it’s not the right decision, but it’s also not the wrong one… the wrong one will recreate what i had to go through for others.
i think i need to get high more often; it would be a lot easier to do if sugar free and delicious edibles were a thing.
