    That statement exists as a result of fierce misinformation campaigns by supporters of the Trump administration including Netanyahu and other Zionists.

    The DNC have never, will never, support Genocide. Genocide is the eradication of a demographic of people, which is the explicit stance of the Trump administration alone. Joe Biden’s administration pushed for ceasefire, threatened Netanyahu constantly with loss of support, built aid distribution networks to feed Palestinians.

      Biden didn’t push for a ceasefire at all. He continuously shipped weapons to israel and even bypassed congress to ship weapons to them. He temporarily paused a single shipment of 2,000 pound bombs, said he was “frustrated” with netanyahu while still doing everything he wanted, and he had a floating pier built that let limited amounts of aid through instead of telling israel to let aid through on-ground. This was apparently enough to fool people like you into thinking biden was serious about helping the Palestinians. If he was serious about stopping the genocide, he could’ve simply stopped all shipments of weapons to israel (you know, the ones carrying out the genocide). This is so basic and obvious that I’m surprised you try to argue otherwise.

        Amount of aid increased after the pier was built. All Aid cut off completely for months when Trump entered office.

          The amount of aid technically increased but was not nearly enough and would’ve been much more easily and quickly satisfied by simply telling israel to let aid through on-ground instead of this ridiculous workaround.

          This is the strategy that democrats always use to justify carrying out heinous acts, just like how biden was instrumental in creating the student loan crisis and then decades later forgiving a tiny fraction of that debt so that supporters can point to that and proudly proclaim “see, he’s doing something!”

      Biden didn’t even acknowdge the genocide. We suppose to thanks Biden for some food when he is fine with billions of dollars in military aid to murder infants?
