      Yes, the bombs will continue to evaporate your family, but think of the women who are dying with no abortion access right now! (Under a democrat as president lol). What about the border wall that is continuing to be built! Or the children who are still being put in cages! Or the millions of americans who are used as slaves in prisons! Or the homeless in California being wiped away like the Nazis did before the Olympics! The trans rights that are being washed away!

      Project 2025 is going to bring all those things that are currently happening right now! We must have our team pass the draconian laws!

          According to that graph they voted overwhelmingly for Democrats in 2020.

          So they were OK in 2020 with whatever they were protesting in 2024.

            Except the Genocide went from mostly quiet, to very loud and explicit. While there has been a genocide agianst Palistinians for quite a wile now, this is the first time in a long time that it has hit the news cycle, or even been this undeniable, so it would make sense that a party that pretends to be lesser evilism, but is letting a genocide accelerate is not going to be able to retain votes.

            While it would be obvious if you followed closely that Democrats never cared about Palestinians, they had some plausible deniability. They could pretend to care about innocents without really adopting any kind of policy. After 2023 they had to actually take a position one way or the other and everyone could see which side they supported. They didn’t even try to feign neutrality anymore, they were full-genocide.

            I see your point, however it was far less kinetic a year and a half ago.

    The Green and PSL platforms were the only ones that claimed they would do anything for Palestine and both said they would end aid to Israel and push a ceasefire immediately. I think the Greens called for a two-state solution too.

        Preach! Lol, to most people, it’s not even an idea they’d consider. Israel as an idea cannot be questioned. Most people want “the problem” to go away settlers style. I feel like my Hitler particle detector is broken because it never stops beeping.

        The US is simply hostile to the entire world and everything in it. Truly the greatest country at being the absolute worst.

      Yes, because Biden seemed like his government and policies would be less frothing at the mouth racist against Muslims. They were not.
