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?

It’s the whitewashing of Biden’s legacy that is disturbing to me. Gaza shouldn’t be some afterthought like how some people are treating it as. There were moments where Biden pushed for progressive policies, but his handling of Gaza, or more the role America should play in Gaza, has been nothing short of horrific.
