        My inaction isnt getting Palestinians killed, my inaction hasnt caused the highest spike in homelessness ever seen, my inaction isnt causing a rise in suicides, my inaction isnt causing stagnant wages. If allowing the deaths of brown people is seen as the lesser evil then there is a serious problem with the mental health and empathy of Americans.
