So we both support genocidal maniacs. Cool
No, not really see. Biden is actively supporting the Israeli side of the Palestinian genocide. Dr. West is not funneling arms or money to Russia. So your original point actually works against you.
I think you should pay more attention to politics.
West supports blocking aid to Ukraine and is complicit in Putin's invasion. Why hold Biden to such a high standard yet give West a free pass?
Do you really not understand the difference between actively supplying arms to and supporting a nation that is committing a genocide and just not supporting a country that's being invaded?
Those are two wildly different things and if you really think they're equivalent then this conversation is not productive.
Biden has an initiative to build a temporary pier in the Gaza to facilitate aid deliveries by sea. Biden has called for a cease fire in Gaza which has pissed off Israel.
West is against all aid to Ukraine. He has never mentioned support of any kind for Ukraine and has been almost entirely silent with any criticism of Putin. He is a monster.
Naive

What about West ignoring Ukrainians and any aid at all? Does he get a free pass?
I guess you intentionally chose an old article because Biden just, for the first time, refused to veto a UN resolution calling for a cease fire several days ago. Yet West still refuses to comment on Putin or the genocide in Ukraine... placing blame solely on NATO for Putin's actions.
