    your precious Gaza

    Disgusting

    The United States is funding and arming a genocide against the Gazans. And you diminish this abomination.

    We Americans deserve what we get

      Seriously, these are the people I’m supposed to have solidarity with? They treat dogs better than they treat Palestinians. Fuck all of that.

          Cool, now do Biden’s hard-line position!! Only one of these guys is currently in power with his foot on the genocide gas pedal and nobody here seems to want to do anything to stop it! Absolute horse shit if you ask me

            Do you prefer genocide or more genocide and the end of democracy? That’s where we are at right now.

            nobody here seems to want to do anything to stop it!

            Like what, vote for Trump? There’s at least a small hope that biden gets fed up with Israel’s shit, trump fully supports it.

              Explain how it is that this is actually where we are at.

              And, if this is actually where we are at, then why should any of us want to maintain such a system? Shouldn’t a system that is reliant on genocide be dismantled? Isn’t that the entire point of the Nuremberg Trials?

              Wow, sounds like a shitty failure of a system that I would be an absolute rube to support in any way.

              Like what, vote for Trump?

              The answer surely isn’t “vote for joe no matter what he does, no line is too far”

                Question, who should someone who wants to end the genocide, vote for? What is your suggestion? How and why would that vote change the situation for the better? How likelihood is the desired outcome?

                  You should be protesting against the war and show solidarity with others doing the same

                  Panic posting about protestors endangering an election is counter effectual; if you want to help you can start by keeping your mouth shut about the election in the context of the protest.

                    Thanks for the advice but it doesn’t answer my questions.

                    It also ignores the context of the conversation. The commenter seems to be implying that you shouldn’t vote for Biden. And I would like to hear their suggestion.

                The answer is “vote for Joe despite him not doing more to aid Gaza, because the only alternative is far, far worse”.

                  Why should anyone support the continuation of a system that offers this as the best available choice?

      We Americans deserve what we get

      Disgusting

      Russia is funding and arming a fascist movement against the Americans. And you diminish this abimination. /s

      Man, it’s so easy to make someone sound bad when you purposefully misrepresent what they said. You didn’t actually engage with them. You only tried to make them sound evil, even though they’re advocating for protecting Palestinians as much as we possibly can. Please stop this garbage.

        Please read the comment and explain how the person was “advocating for protecting Palestinians as much as we possibly can.”

        To me it sounds like they don’t care about them at all, and see them as nothing more than an inconvenience in getting Biden reelected. Which is the mainstream Dem position

        Comment is reposted below for your convenience:

        "As “funny” as this might be, if you don’t fucking vote Biden you’re likely voting for a huge world wide change off a cliff. If Trump wins, then your precious Gaza will be wiped out or whatever similar words he used. And that is just the start. His claims, he wants to be a dictator, the 2025 document basically wishes the US to become Gilead, and lots more fun stuff.

        Seriously, maybe this might be slightly panicky, but these are things that are in all seriousness claimed by the Republican party and Trump. That is what you will be voting for if you don’t vote Biden , so how about you shut the . up for now about this, at least until after the elections?

        On a side note, I can guarantee you that these groups end up receiving funding from Russia and whatnot. Not that they do that willingly or knowingly, but with Russia continuously meddling in US politics, you can rest assured that Putin won’t sit by while this is happening, he needs his useful idiot in US power."
