Muslim Americans in swing states launch anti-Biden campaign

We hope that shooting ourselves in the foot today will allow us to run faster in the years to come...

Expecting either US political party to drop its support for Israel is a fool's game.

I can't wait till we find out in a few months how Russian & Iranian money was actually fueling this.

The guy running against Biden has far worse policies with regard to Muslims. If that guy wins it "proves" America wants the worse policies, potentially causing Democrats to switch to those policies to try to win.

Luckily, this is a publicity stunt that I don't foresee changing any actual votes.

Didn't Trump have a travel ban on Muslims at one point?

Edit: yep, he did

If they succeed in electing Trump, Democrats won't need to reflect about anything because they won't be allowed to run for office anymore.

Ah, yes, "recalibrate" to a dictatorship. Republicans LOVE muslims!

They must want to completely lose Democracy because they aren't getting their way. That's what's in the ballot. There very likely won't BE 2028 election if Rump gets back in.

It's notable that the Republicans have not attempted to court the pro Palestinian voters in reaction to the anger at Biden. Because they are if anything more pro Israel / anti Palestine than the Democrats.

I agree that the Dems are the "only slightly better" party in a few aspects, and they need to do better. But slightly better is still better than the alternative and we need to vote like it.

FTA:

"a reflection of their outrage over President Biden's handling of the Israel-Hamas war."

If that's legit their position, then they have no candidate in 2024. It's not like they can vote for Trump.

"That Muslim Ban was such a good idea and concentration camps at the border, we want to see what the orange one will do next!"

These fucking idiots.

Morons.

I will never ever understand minorities that vote this way. I get people who are like me voting conservative, I don't but I get their self-interest pov. You are literally voting for people who want you deported. They have made that crystal clear.

Russian money hard at work.

Yeah that worked real well for the people that didn't vote for Hillary because sanders that shafted by the DNC. DNC never learned their lesson and Trump winning again I doubt they will learn.

Yeah sorry these people are idiots and should be ignored. We are in a really dangerous position right now where we could still fall to fascism and need every blue vote we can.

Do they honestly think that a Republican or Trump (who banned people from Muslim countries) aren't gonna ban them too?

Muslim ideology doesn't exactly fit with democracy so it makes sense for them to embrace radical extremism. Same goes for most religions.

These people are stupid. Short-sighted generation that can't see past next month. They're not going to be changing anything, just making sure worse for no reason and giving conservatives more time to get the anti-minority establishment further embedded in everyday culture.

and the Democrats will have to consider whether they want our votes or not.

This thread indicates not.

Centrist Democrats have never considered that a party is obligated to represent people whose votes it needs.

Yup, they're about as dumb as the Sanders or bust people.

They want change then vote/volunteer in the damn primary, volunteer to get rid of the first past the post bullshit.

Doing this, this is just 2016 levels of fucking stupid.

Everyone in the comments focusing on literally only this election and ignoring what they said in their reasoning.

Yes they understand if Trump wins it will be worse in the next 4 years. They’re hoping that the democrats realize that putting a candidate just slightly less evil isn’t good enough anymore and they actually need to win votes instead of saying “we support marginally less genocide then the republicans” and that being good enough.

Not saying that’s going to fully work out, but people acting likes that’s crazy aren’t seeing the full picture. At a certain point the democratic establishment needs to be punished for its bullshit lesser of two evils otherwise it’ll continue to do it. Is now the best time? Maybe not but thats a much more in depth analysis than just reacting “oh they must love Trump then!?”

The leopards are going to have their bellies full of face meat this election season...

Maybe… Just maybe this is an attempt to get Biden to finally listen. Because it sure seems like he hasn’t been. All the people in this thread sure are quick to write off how it feels to be Muslim/Arab in America right now.

Incredibly shortsighted. This conflict has no easy solution and everyone involved wants Biden to take their side.

The trouble here is that the democrats coalition has stakes in both sides. This entire conflict was practically a gift to the republicans.

Honest question: what would Trump be doing right now? Nuking Gaza? Nuking Iran? "If you're not with us, you're against us"? And I'm sure Fox News would be backing him up how the US needs to invade Iran.

Every election cycle it seems to happen. Republicans mostly put aside their individual beefs and vote against the same candidates. Meanwhile, everyone else slap fights and struggles to come to any consensus. Positive change can happen. Fuck me if we agree on what to tackle first. I'd be rather impressed if there wasn't so much on the line.

Islam empowering bad actors.
Absolutely iconic duo.

Galaxy IQ

the next four years I wish I believed that was all that was at stake

Jews for Hitler was a German Jewish organization during the Weimar Republic and the early years of Nazi Germany that eventually came out in support of Adolf Hitler.

For all those castigating them for not supporting Biden: imagine the issue is abortion, and the Democrats are upholding a bipartisan anti-abortion consensus, the only difference being they feel bad about it sometimes. Would you still be blasting the women's rights activists trying to raise a stink, and tell them to shut up because the alternative is worse?

republican psyop.

Republicans can’t believe their luck. Like, did they even have to pay for this one?

Most religious people are not good on this sort of reasoning.

Be nice if the leaders endorsed third parties instead of just going anti-democrat. Gotta give people the alternative and keep that vote relevant.

Americans would deserve everything they would get and worse if they elected Trump over Biden because of a conflict overseas.

They've shown they can be self destructive having elected Trump before but if the Muslim community legitimately thinks that the guy who banned Muslims from immigrating as one of his first moves in office would be any more friendly to the Muslim community, then they'd deserve their fates.

Dumbass tokens spending astroturfed money.

Really odd to watch these pro Netanyahu Muslims.

The actual idiots are the people calling them idiots. If the democratic party wants their votes then stop funding a genocide in Palestine. Neither party represents them or even tried to court them, so why should they vote for someone who only promises not to hurt them even more?

Americans are brainwashed by the two party system. It's always been "vote for the lesser evil'. It will continue to be that way until you do something about it.

If voters still support Biden after condoning genocide they deserve to lose. Rewarding the party with continued power after their recent actions enables them to do it again and again with each time getting progressively worse. This is the brain rot from accepting 'lesser evil' that's grown so large that ethnic cleansing is now acceptable

Muslims bad?

Is Steve Bannon's hand in this too?

Based. If you have to choose between Hitler and Stalin just stay home and don't vote.

There should be consequences for publications hosting fascist propaganda

So what does this conflict have to do with Islam, exactly?
