I mean Biden's pitch has always carried the implicit promise not to do anything about the systemic extrajudicial executions of black people, so

Worth pointing out that 'they' here is the Jewish artist Eli Valley. A lot of his work is about subverting the language of antisemitism e.g. he'll use typical tropes to depict gentiles, and then e.g. the Jewish figure here has a tiny nose. It's certainly edgy at times, but he's engaging with the terms of his own oppression as a Jew

Liberals are, to quote Phil Ochs: "ten degrees to the left of center in the good times, ten degrees to the right of center when it affects them personally"

Look rather than dunk on you, I'm going to recommend Mike Duncan's Revolutions podcast, because it gives a fair overview of what the liberal revolutions were about, why socialism grew out of that moment, and how there came to be this irreconciliable beef between liberalism and socialism. The whole thing is great, but 1848 is the real crisis point if all you care about is the schism.

Do you know what the word 'liberal' actually means

Also, the underlying thesis that there is this ancient animosity between Muslims and Jews (neatly sidestepping Europe's long history of antisemitic violence) is deeply problematic, and tbqh tantamount to denialism

Or, more realistically:

  • 3 vote to drive off the cliff
  • 2 vote for ice-cream
  • 4 vote to drive off the cliff at a slightly reduced speed, having been assured that they might get to look at a picture of some ice-cream, but only after democracy has been saved
