We don't need to zoom out, though. In the end it didn't matter who supported his decisions, Biden had legal authority to stop arms shipments to Israel, and instead chose to expedite them. Other politicians supporting him doesn't absolve him, and bringing taxpayer contribution into the conversation is losing the trees for the forest when those taxes are compulsory and we don't directly choose how that money is spent. Maybe none of us are "innocent", but some of us are more guilty than others, and Biden- who had direct power to end our involvement and instead accelerated it- is certainly the guiltiest.

Sure, but Biden wasn’t on the ballot, and this refusal to engage with JD as culpable now proves this isn’t about who is actually responsible. And calling everyone genocide supporters when they had the same shit options to choose between really isn’t helping a soul in Palestine.
