      It literally is how it works.

      Every four years, there’s a performance review. People decide whether hiring the guy was a mistake - and if he doesn’t measure up, they don’t extend his contract.

      You obey the people who give you the job, or you don’t continue working there.

      The people want Biden to stop helping Israel exterminate Palestinians - and indeed, to put significant and effective pressure on Israel to stop doing it altogether.

      If he won’t do that, they won’t vote to extend his presidency for another term.

      That’s the entire point. That’s what democracy is for.

      If your leader is being a piece of shit, you get to dump his ass. Otherwise, they could keep on being pieces of shit, and nobody could stop them.

      It’s a vastly insufficient mechanism, but it’s the only one we’ve got.

      Biden is being a contemptible piece of shit. He can stop doing that, or he can look for another job.

        It’s not “this guy, yes or no”. It’s “this guy or that guy”. The position will be filled. You get to pick which of the two candidates gets the job, but there are only two candidates.

        Given that all your complaints with this guy are also present in the other guy, except way worse, I think you should choose this guy.

          It’s not “this guy, yes or no”.

          It is for this guy.

          Go spit in your boss’ face, then tell him he can’t fire you, you’re the best candidate available. See how long you keep getting paid.

          Accountability, motherfucker. Do you speak it?

              'tis not doesn’t work. You need to actually make a case for your position.

              People vote for you, or they don’t. Their reasons are their own - but if you’ve pissed them off and blatantly done things they didn’t want you to, chances are this will not go well for you.

              That’s how it works.
