    How the fuck are ‘we’ complicit in it when our government only follows the average citizen’s will in 10% of their policies?

    You’re just like the megacorps chiding us for not recycling our water bottle caps.

      The American public isn’t trying to recall or remove politicians who support unrestricted arms sales to Israel. Both Biden and Trump are for unrestricted sales, it seems.

          If Biden wants to ignore the will of voters then he can win his own election without us.

          I want Trump to lose too, but Biden has been really insulting to the pro-Palestine voters, which is unlike any presidents before him. He couldn’t even bring himself to acknowledge or pretend to grieve for dead Palestinians although he publicly hugs families of Israeli victims.
