Biden Echoes Fascist Rhetoric in Speech Denouncing “Lawless” Pro-Palestine Protests

  In his remarks, Biden falsely claimed — without citing a single instance of pro-Palestine demonstrators instigating violence — that the pro-Palestine protests have been violent and threatened the safety of their communities. He then condemned the supposed “lawless[ness]” of the protests, purposefully neglecting to acknowledge the U.S.’s role in Israel’s repeated violations of international law.

  Motherfucker acts more like trump every day…

  At least when trump said this shit about BLM, all Dem politicians and the media called him out.

  Biden says this about people protesting a genocide America is funding, and if you mention it people get made and accuse you of helping trump.

  Why the fuck aren’t people demanding more than either of those two old assholes?

    He knows people who won’t vote for Trump will vote for him anyway, but this move might make him more palatable to republicans who are losing hope in Trump.

    It’s a calculated move to gain more voters than to lose. Whether it’s a good move, up to you.

  I generally consider calling Democrats fascists to be a massive exaggeration, but if it looks like a fascist, quacks like a fascist and acts like a fascist, it's a fascist.

  When it comes to genocide silence is violence, not protest.

  Not the first time he’s echoed fascist rhetoric, and it won’t be the last

  I don’t want to say he’s a fascist, but if the jackboot fits…
