Yes, Biden had 50% approval among democrats for his handling of the current conflict, and the majority of Republicans have always supportes Israel over Palestine.
Centralized autocratic government. Unilaterally funding genocide against the wishes of the people. That is fascism. That is what both sides of the aisle are doing in America today. Biden happens to be in the drivers seat today.
11,000 unaffiliated civilians murdered in 1.5 months and Netanyahu is loudly ramping up. Sounds like genocide to me.
Hamas is intentionally using Palestinian civilians as human shields, attacking Israel from populated areas.
And Israel has the munitions and ability to kill every Palestinian in a matter of weeks. If they wanted to genocide the Palestinians they could have already wiped them out.

The Democrats aren’t fascist though.
Acting in defiance of the votes and voice of the constituents. Funding genocide and working to do so unilaterally behind closed doors.
Yup. Sounds pretty fascist to me.
The majority of Americans support Israel, so they are not acting against the interests or voice of their constituents.
Are you sure about that?
The majority of Americans are supporting the Palestinian genocide right now?
Every report I have heard is that Biden’s already abysmal approval rating TANKED the moment he started funding the genocide.
Last I checked, the average American is pretty anti-genocide.

Also not everyone agrees it’s a genocide.

Hamas is intentionally using Palestinian civilians as human shields, attacking Israel from populated areas.
And Israel has the munitions and ability to kill every Palestinian in a matter of weeks. If they wanted to genocide the Palestinians they could have already wiped them out.
So the only option is to murder the human shield.
11 thousand of them in 1.5 months in fact.
Well the other option is try and move ground troops in, which not only risks their lives, but the human shield is still risked.
Hamas ceasing to exist would prevent the civilian casualties though, but Hamas wants as many civilians as possible to die.
And given Israel has the ability to kill all 1 million of them in that time, they must really just be terrible at this genocide thing.
