    First statement: hyperbolic joke to make a point

    Second statement: response to clarify actual facts.

    You are still acting in bad faith here BTW or you have poor reading comprehension.

      You don’t get to vacillate between “it’s just a joke bro” and prescriptive statements based on how people react to you.

      Your joke was a hyperbolic exaggeration of an imaginary situation where Biden is the primary authority suppressing criticism of Israel. He isn’t. Roughly in order, it’s local police, then congress (not really), then Biden (not at all). That’s why I reacted negatively to the joke, and to your clarification of “actual facts.”

      I left some room for reasonable interpretation of what you said, since “accuse” can mean either formal or informal and they’re very different here. But “imprison” and “federal and state” kind of biases the interpretation towards something formal. But in any case, when I clarified exactly what I think about it, you sent me a clown emoji and got hostile about it and claimed I was changing my position. And you’re confused that I’m not being super friendly? There’s a big difference between someone not being polite to you and them speaking in bad faith.

      I sort of have a hair trigger for this stuff because I’m accustomed at this point to all the propaganda-bots coming out of the woodwork saying “Biden Biden Biden” any time they get a chance to draw some weird tortured-logic connection between him and some unrelated story about something bad. So if it sounded like I jumped down your throat I apologize. But Biden doesn’t really have much to do with Israel rejecting the cease fire, or with suppression of the protests, so it’s gonna irritate me whenever someone pops into a story to bring his name into the picture out of nowhere.

        You do understand what Israel is doing is war crimes and US regime is enabling it.

        But nahh, your real concern is that somebody made a joke at espensse of your dear leader. You are fucking disgusting.

        MLK did call out the moderate democrat. God is it still true …

            You spent several comments white washing US role in war crimes committed by Israel…

            While Israel is only able to do this shit because US “leadership” permits it.

            This ain’t about biden specifically either, he is just a figure head for the regime. All of them are down for the way crimes party in the holy land.
