    That’s a very privileged view you have, that both parties are the same.

    There is no “Zero Genocide” option, not because I’m bloodthirsty, but because I am held hostage b y a blood thirsty machine, just like every other American.

    Right now, that machine does not need consent to destroy Palestine, but it does need consent to kill pregnant women, to separate latino babies from their parents, to end birthright citizenship, to mass incarcerate transgender individuals in prisons intended for their birth sex, to deport Palestinian-Americans back to Palestine while it’s still being bombed… Because this is all Trump wants to do.

    You can’t kill off the whole group simply because you’re upset that there can’t be a 100% survival rate here… And it pains me to say that, I’m not trying to be dismissive, I’m saying that the people you want to save are doomed no matter who is President. But there are still many other lives who will perish under a Trump regime, who won’t under a Harris presidency.

    Reminder: Trump also supports the genocide of Palestine, but he also supports escalation up to and including Nuclear weapons, Harris would keep it business as usual. Neither is exactly my ideal outcome for Palestine, but you need to let terrible be the enemy of bad.

      So why aren’t you voting for Trump? After all, you said it yourself - it doesn’t matter that people die because MaChInE won’t stop. It’s better to give up than to not vote for someone who supports killing the people you want saved according to you.

      When it comes to Palestine, Trump and Harris are the exact same. Both support killing of Palestinians. She had a chance to do the right thing and get the votes, instead she doubled down. Fuck Harris and fuck Trump.
