    If you absolutely had to stay loyal to the Democrat party for some reason, he could’ve packed the courts like the democrats that call themselves “progressive” were telling him to do from day one of his administration, which said “progressives” were told it was ‘bad form’. Hell, Democrats have been using Roe v. Wade and similar protective legislation for women as carrots to dangle in front of the electorate ever since the Drone King; remember how the Violence Against Women act was supposed to be one of that minstrel’s priorities during his first hundred days, only for it to become “no longer a priority” after he got his seat?

    But the correct answer would have been to divest from the party. To have made it clear that literal fucking genocide is the red line of any actual human with an actually-international slate of morals. To walk away, and make them earn your support– which you and those like you will never do, because you’re spineless dogs waiting for the next table scraps to fall from the genocider’s plate.

    You, and everyone like you chose wrong; in unforgivable ways. I eagerly await your society’s collapse, me and the rest of the subjects-of-empire y’all tread on day-in, and day-out.

      I’m not even american, so I’m not sure what you arw on about right now. All I asked was how Roe v. Wade being repealed was Biden’s fault, and the answer apparently is that he did not pack the court.

      How genocide fits into Roe v. Wade, or how callling me names somehow helps I’m still unsure of.

        Didn’t pursue codification into law in his first hundred days just like the Drone King failed to do so with the Violence against Women Act; didn’t make use of the fact that the Constitution makes no limits on how many supreme court justices can exist on the bench at one time while he had an iron clad majority at the start of his administration, and now has the TEMERITY to use it as one of the new cudgels for this election cycle. “Oh, we’ll definitely codify it into law THIS time” yeah sure that’s what was said about VAWA.

        I spit on him, I spit on everybody who runs interference for him, I spit on everybody who bears his water. The reason genocide comes up is because THAT IS WHAT HE IS. With his arming and tacit support of Israel, he is the same kind of genocidal trash Netanyahu and the rest of the IDF are; and that fact actually matters more to me than Amerikans and the health and well-being of such. The fact that the people who still want me to see them as my countrymen have accepted genocide as a negotiable disgusts me so goddamn much that I don’t even see anyone who does so as human anymore.

        And because you’re out here running interference for that cracker, I see you no different. Give a fuck where you come from; if you’re ‘not’ Amerikan, fuck are you running your mouth like one? Keep your mark ass out the process.

          As (again) a non-american, doesn’t that require both chambers to support the legislation?

            To a degree. There would’ve been ways to force it while he still had at least one majority; but what it boils down to for me is ‘don’t say you’re going to do some shit if you’re never going to actually do it.’ This is why even if he wasn’t enslaving my people by the pigload, even if he wasn’t letting PDs extrajudically murder us at our workplaces, in these streets, and even in our homes, I’d still never support him.

            He’s the same kind of liar Drone King Barry was; except even Barry didn’t have a pre-presidential history of locking up Black folk, eulogizing klansmen, and erecting Cop Cities during his administration to upkeep and intensify the inherent fascism of this country.

              But isn’t it obvious that if a presidential candidate promises some legislation, that it is contingent on the legislative branch?

                Maybe if you’ve got all the principle of a used car salesman. Where I’m from, writing checks your ass can’t cash results in your ass getting bounced, regardless of the circumstances you were writing it under. I don’t make allotments for rich old white men like that.
