I did watch police protect their neo nazi friends and beat protesters, it’s disgusting.
But you are kidding yourself if not voting isn’t a vote for Trump. And you are kidding yourself if you think a right wing Christian nationalist party would send fewer bombs. They would send more “for Jesus” and I think you know that.
All these people are convinced that Trump would be worse for Palestinians.
And maybe they’re right, maybe Trump will send in straight up death squads. Maybe he’ll build vans that pipe the exhaust into the cargo area and ship them to tel Aviv. Maybe he’ll start sending the Israelis Zyclon b.
But the fact remains. The last year has been the most deadly for Palestinians. Ever. More Palestinians have been killed in the last year than died during the formation of the state of Israel. More Palestinians have had their homes destroyed in the last year, then ever before in modern history.
At this point, saying Trump would be worse for Palestine is like saying that Himmler would have been worse for the Jews. Possibly technically correct, but also a poor attempted genocide denial.
I’ve seen you comment that in a few places, and I don’t really think I disagree with you. It’s truly awful what is happening and has happened to Palestinians. It’s also awful that our government is, on average, indifferent and in bed with AIPAC.
I wish there were real leaders here with courage to lead and be better. I would much rather vote to support men and women like that than “which of these humans trash bags will do the least damage.”
I firmly object to people telling ME how to vote. Especially when it is clear they care more about a tax policy that will never pass the house, than they do about tens of thousands of dead children.
But many are rightfully afraid of another Trump presidency and the not zero chance that there will be no further real elections. I’m sure you understand that view too.

humanstrash bags will do the least damage.”Listen.
I ain’t gonna tell you now to vote.
I firmly object to people telling ME how to vote. Especially when it is clear they care more about a tax policy that will never pass the house, than they do about tens of thousands of dead children.
Yeah, I hear you on that.

If you live in a swing state you gotta do what you think is best.
My vote literally doesn’t matter. Kamala will not get within 10 points in my state. I am not gonna mix my pride up with her shame.
Yeah, swing stater here. Sucks that your vote is drowned out. I know that frustration from before I moved here.
