    The Joe Biden legacy is literal genocide. What kind of insane person do you have to be to not be happy about this? This is objectively awesome.

      You don’t have to be insane to not be happy about this. I believe in ‘harm reduction’, which is to say: If joe biden were still president, i would probably not be upset if some medical condition removed him from the presidency, because then he could no longer actively do harm from his position of power.

      But now? He has almost no active power or influence over anything. His suffering doesn’t benefit me or reverse any previous harms he’s caused.

          What is the purpose of punishment? To reform behavior? Or to make you feel better?

          You can claim justice, but in this case, that’s just making you feel better. You want to hurt someone because they hurt others. That’s how we’ve had never-ending wars. We as a species need to grow past this

          • Do you think the Nuremberg trials were bad too?

            Using “pacisim” to excuse a genocidal maniac who has expressed zero regret for his actions. What a joke. I am glad Hitler died and I am glad Joe Biden is dying.

            The world will grow past these war criminals and their genocide mindset.

      Isn’t every American presidents legacy genocide? Why is it so much more front and center for biden?

        That’s the neat part, it is! It’s front and center for Biden because it’s here and now, and more people have a personal connection to Israel and Palestine than other genocides.

        Biden was part of all of the warmongering as well. He was a primary pusher for the Iraq invasion. Even before his presidency Biden was a massive piece of shit.

        But during his presidency he facilitated a straight clear genocide. Anyone empathizing with Biden is an awful person.

        If Bush gets cancer tomorrow I am cheering too.
