I just don’t understand how you can be informed about politics and not understand the enormous gulf between the two primary options.

Being informed about politics leads one to understand that there is no such gulf.

Like, you literally thought that ICE appeared less than two years ago, that Biden didn't take part in any invasions, that Biden didn't openly abuse power to shield his family from the laws he himself pushed through decades ago, and so on.

the difference in scale is staggering.

It's not. The difference is just decorum and lack thereof.

Sorry, I'm not interested in conversing with someone who can't read what I've already said.

...or someone who doesn't have any idea what's happening outside.

What you said was that ICE wasn't a thing under Biden and Obama.

…or someone who doesn’t have any idea what’s happening outside.

When you were listing differences between Trump and the preceeding blue fascists, the things that you listed were also features under said blue administrations.

The fact is that the only thing that is significantly different in this case is decorum, the lack of which you abhor more than literal genocides.

LITERALLY no on all three counts. I pointed to specific instances of their policy differences and did not make any of the statements you just claimed I did. You are sitting in the cave arguing against shadows on the wall.

Again, there is no point conversing if you are not capable of responding to reality.

So, you weren't the one who said this?

Different doesn’t mean Biden was good, just that he was so much better than the alternative. ... Deport citizens arrested by ICE to third-world countries with no trial and refuse to bring them back?

Even for the examples I gave where you can say yes, technically the Biden admin did this too

Again, if your prior list, where you say that Buden (and Obama) didn't use ICE and didn't bomb other countries (technically, you were only concerned with ships for some reason) and the like, was not what you meant, you are free to actually mention things that you think are substantial differences between Trump and the preceding genocidaires in chief.
