Seriously. Pro-Palestinian so they'll let Trump win? Do they think a man who instituted a "Muslim ban" (Trump's own words) is going to side with them?

The bastard moved the embassy to Jerusalem for fucks sake. He gave more funding to Israel than any other president. Trump would gleefully fund genocide just to hurt leftists and reward his evangelical base.

I think there is anti-Western psyops (I don't want to say Russian or Chinese because who knows if either or both are doing it) going on with emphasising not to vote Biden and keep calling him "genocide Joe", even though Trump is far more supportive of Israel in his last presidency. I have seen the rhetoric of genocide Joe and "left should not vote he him for supporting Israel" even in some seemingly centrist comments, which happens to be pro-Russia at the same time and those commenters are suspiciously new, or the account had aged out only to post months later after signing up. This is just too much of a coincidence.

If this is a Russian psyops, it is obvious why because Trump is ideologically (perhaps financially) aligned with Putin, and Trump being back into the White House will gut the aid to Ukraine. Trump himself said he will force Ukraine to accept the territorial losses from the invasion and threatened to pull US out of NATO.

Anyone who keeps saying not to vote for Biden because of his support for Israel is either psyops agent or fell into the propaganda, which in turn is only helping the disinformation propagandists.

The left calls him Genocide Joe for supporting Israel, the right calls him Jihad Joe for supporting Palestine. Environmentalists hate how domestic oil and gas production have gone up, fossil fuels enthusiasts hate his investments in renewable energy. So many people in news bubbles that are mad at Biden.
