Joe Biden continues to fully support the Gaza genocide because he does not believe it will hurt him politically, and because he has no empathy for the Palestinians. This is the same arrogance that brought down LBJ over the Vietnam war.

Not what I’m hearing: #Biden specifically speaks to #Gaza during his speech at Morehouse:
“He reminded them that he has called “for an immediate ceasefire…to stop the fighting [and] bring the hostages home.” His administration has been working for a deal, as well as to get more aid into Gaza and to rebuild it. Crucially, he added, there is more at stake than “just one ceasefire.” He wants “to build a lasting, durable peace. Because the question is…: What after?..”
@justiceLICSW@mondoweiss@palestine@israel you are being gaslighted. I’ve come to the conclusion Americans are the most politically naive in the developed world. You’re fed utter mush via your media.

You are correct! Most US media companies are primarily concerned about staying in the good graces of 1. Corporate funders, and 2. Power-mad politicians. This directly impacts their journalistic priorities and the angles of their storytelling.
Fortunately we do have alternatives like Democracy Now and many others that are trying to keep us informed in spite of our tendency to close our eyes and stick our fingers in our ears.
The ONLY thing the DNC cares about is my vote and since the entire DNC decided to let this man run unopposed and decided that a red state was a great way to decide who gets to be president in 2020 then my options are
Vote for nazis
Vote for people that use nazis to weaponize my fear to keep the worst most incompotent idiots in charge imaginable and refuse to be effective against nazis because its the only way they would ever be elected
