It may be unintentional, or well meaning, but ultimately it does serve to apologize for fascism.

Assuming he is that bad—which again I’m not sure, though I think he is or close to it—but when someone calls me a fascist, I find it hard to take them seriously. It’s like when someone accuses me of having TDS my typical reply is of course that I indeed have TDS, anybody who doesn’t worship Trump has TDS.

IIUC, you’re telling me that when it comes to Palestine, Biden is no better than Trump, or conversely, Trump is no worse than Biden.

At times I tend to agree with this, but I say it while acknowledging that I don’t know everything about the issue—I am no expert on this. For all I know, Biden might be worse, or Trump might be worse; which is why I wouldn’t be so quick to call someone who thinks one isn’t as bad as the other an apologist for fascism. IMO, if you say that, you better know what you’re talking about. You want to bash Biden or the Democrats from a leftist POV, go right on ahead, but your (apparent at least) pontificating makes you look like an elitist.

What is prompting you to ask me these questions? Because it seems like you’re just trying to derail.

I’m trying to understand why you replied with what you replied.

​

I could start asking you completely unrelated questions as well, but it would just be wasting time.

Ask away.

​

Incidentally, my answers are no and yes, respectively.

Thank you for answering the questions.

Presumably they wouldn’t curtail it for Trump, but they might for Biden.

I’ll put it in question form.

Do you believe that there are no non-leftists who oppose the genocide of Palestinians?

Do you believe that there are liberals who oppose the genocide of Palestinians?

Netanyahu is no better than Hitler,

Hitler was no worse than Netanyahu.

Both committed mass murder and genocide and are therefore equally evil.

Agree?

and do you think that Trump is no worse than Biden when it comes to supporting genocide?

I’ll take that as a “Yes, no non-leftists oppose the genocide of Palestinians.”

So according to you, there are no non-leftists who oppose the genocide of Palestinians.

Then by your definition, I’m an apologist for genocide.

I suppose “ethnic cleansing” is a euphemism for genocide.

You think republicans are gonna prosecute biden while trump is doing the same thing?

Congressional ones who have little hope in becoming President might. Also many are hypocrites.

​

they just got scotus to rule that the president is above the law.

Didn’t SCOTUS did that by themselves—I suppose to reward Trump for choosing them.

Many Americans would rather vote for a leader who supports Israeli genocide of Palestinians a little less than the Republican candidate who supports Israeli genocide of Palestinians a little more. It’s why if I was American, I’d support neither Democrats nor Republicans.

Yes, I suppose.

I’m not sure about Republicans.

I suppose; but many Americans preferred him to Trump.

Presumably an American court.

I suppose some of it, yes; but still, maybe tankies shouldn’t generalize too much.

Then I suppose he can be prosecuted.

but I really don’t have enough historical knowledge on the subject.

Me neither. 😁

But yeah, that’s kind of my take on it too. Thanks for your reply. 🙂
