    I mean, is there anything he did significantly worse than the Trump admin you would like to share with me?

      Not really, no. Like I said, they were very similar.

        I seriously cannot understand how people believe this. Do you participate in US news discussion?

          Clearly they do more than you do, given they’re were aware of Biden’s crimes that you weren’t. Also, you can’t understand how people believe that because you can’t imagine thinking of Palestinians as human

          Well, if you ignore the bad things that someone does, then I can see how this can be confusing. I participate in US news discussions all the time, that’s how I know that Biden is a terrible person, who did terrible things.

          If you want to be less confused, I’d recommend that you do the same.

              I’m not sure you do. You just referenced a document where you didn’t know half of what what going on under Biden.

                Would you like to provide any examples of Biden doing the things I mentioned?

                  Sure, heres a few of them. For future reference, there are these things called “Search engines” that let you find stuff that you don’t know about. You should try them out. But something tells me that you won’t do any research, and you likely won’t even look into these.

                    This is horrible. You could rightfully argue this does not properly count as court. Although this doesn’t disprove any individual claim I made; the article mentions nothing about citizens being treated in this way, for example. Still wrong to do it of course.

                    https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2023/04/internal-documents-show-how-little-fbi-did-correct-misuse-section-702-databases

                    This was a measure taken to increase oversight into database access, not reduce it. Agents have more access than they should, but this is a far cry from unsupervised write access to multiple agency’s databases by people with no security clearance or oversight. If the point being made is about surveillance rather than unsupervised DB access: Yeah, I know the Biden admin did it too, that’s why I didn’t pretend it was something unique to the Trump admin.

                    https://news.oilandgaswatch.org/post/despite-biden-climate-promises-oil-production-on-federal-lands-is-rising

                    Looks like regulations on federal land were proposed to increase, not be removed. Continuing to lease land could plausibly count as allowing nature to be destroyed though.

                    https://www.winknews.com/news/lee/suspected-rapist-uber-driver-refuses-to-give-up-phone-password/article_9426cba4-e60c-5ce2-b516-7d39b06c99f3.html

                    This was not Biden? It was a state level trial. But yes, keeping him in jail for that long is highly suspect, even if he did waive his right to a speedy trial.

                    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/oct/01/steven-donziger-lawyer-sentenced-contempt-chevron

                    Not sure which point this is supposed to disprove.

                    https://www.politico.com/news/2024/05/20/biden-gaza-not-genocide-israel-00159020

                    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamas_baby_beheading_hoax

                    https://internationalpolicy.org/publications/the-biden-administrations-false-history-of-ceasefire-negotiations/

                    Same with these three. I don’t think I made any claims about Israel or Gaza at all? Correct me if I’m wrong, it’s been several days.

                    Overall: You did provide several articles that, while not technically disproving any individual claim I made, make good points that the Biden admin is not entirely innocent on some of the topics related to the points I mentioned. Still, as I’ve probably said before, the difference in scale is important.
