I hope Trump gets blocked from re-election and Biden still manages to loose to a third party. I'd begrudgingly take a libertarian at this point if it means the end the US wholesale supporting the occupiers of Palestine.

Libertarians do not really believe in anti-war stuff. Some ghoul would explain to President Private Roads that supporting Isreal makes line go up or dime shit and the status quo would be maintained

They seem to at least say they are anti war and our current foreign policy. I don't like them but seeing how openly pro war Biden is and has been has got me fucked up.

That's totally understandable. Its disgusting to see. Biden has always been massively pro-war, but no one who can become president in the US will be different though.

Its horrible to witness comrade heart-sickle

At this point I hope trump wins and democrats get sent into exile and break from the following recriminations and blame-gaming

"But trump would do mass genocide in the US" powercry-2

I remember them advocating to being less militarily active in the Middle East (though probably more as a cost cutting measure and to pay lip service to the idea of non aggression). I don't actually want a libertarian in charge but part of me wonders if it would at least be better for the rest of the world vs Republicans or Democrats.
