They remember, and they want it back. They're fascists who are too cowardly to claim the label - which is impressive, as fascists are generally pretty cowardly to begin with.

This line of thinking implies there are only two possible positions: "Uncritical support for Biden" and "I'm going to criticize genocide and I also want to let fascists rule, for some reason". Have you thought that perhaps you're missing a lot of nuance about what people think?

It's a binary choice dude. One or the other will win.

I give somewhat of a pass to comments that say "Biden is the only sane choice, but he's wrong for this". Comments that just shit on Biden are obvious attempts to suppress the Democratic vote.

Right, it couldn't be that normal humans beings are fucking horrified at their own country enabling a genocide, and demanding every single criticism of the Democratic Party to be accompanied by "I will vote for them though" is reasonable.

Don't worry. Even if you tell them you're voting for Biden, they'll ignore it every time you say it.
