Discussion Dementia is Disqualifying, but Not Genocide

It's really disturbing to me that dementia is disqualifying for Joe Biden, but him doing a genocide is not. That shows how Palestinians are viewed in America by the political class.

If only Hitler had dementia, maybe we could've gotten rid of him sooner, since the Holocaust wouldn't have been a problem for him with his domestic constituency.

What do others think?

Put me on the cross for what I say but how come bush is still viewed as a hero, people regularly boast about how they met him and took a selfie even after the millions of deaths in the Middle East, but trump for some reason, because of some sexual allegations by some prostitute or other relatively way smaller (alleged) crimes is literally hitler for the whole system and medias.

I'm not a fan of his, I'm not even american, and I despise him because he defends isr*l like there is no tomorrow, but something tells me that his approach would be more realistic and he would be more firm toward satanhyaou. I mean he can't do worse than bden. Last estimates are saying that even if the genocide stops now, 10% of Gazaouis would be counted as dead (directly and indirectly because of it). In less than a year FFS

I would chalk that up to political polarization and culture war.

As well as the memory-holing of the genocidal war against Iraq, which was many years in the making prior to the invasion.

Americans just forget their own government's crimes constantly.

I agree with you but it was never about memory. During the "war", the american media and general population just didn't care. Even when it was revealed that the invasion was based on lies there was not much turbulence. The contrast is too striking compared to what we can witness with Trump to not question oneself how dangerous he can be to the establishment.
