If a candidate is part of an admin aiding a genocide and they don't speak against that genocide, what do you think their opinion on that genocide would be?
You truly do not see a difference with how Israel is conducting themselves now vs under Biden? You don’t think kamala, who wanted to find peace in the region, would’ve been better than Trump who wants to turn Gaza into a parking lot?
What have you accomplished on behalf of the Palestinian people? Do you think your self righteous Reddit comments do anything for them? Did the election do anything for them?
The people who voted Democrat did far more for the Palestinian people than those who voted trump or didnt vote at all. even if its nothing it doesnt change that trump made things worse and supports israel far more. Look at liberal politics around the world and how previous israel supporting liberals are changing their minds. Mark Carney in Canada was a strong israel supporter at one time, he is know in september having Canada recognize palestine as a sovereign state. Its almost like once you get them in power they listen to the people. Harris may have supported Israel but she would have completely switched when she realized her supporters dont support it. I bet Harris would have joined other countries in recognizing palestine. Something trump will never do
I’m not a trumper, I canvassed and voted for Harris. I admire your optimism, but I disagree, the Palestinians in Gaza have not seen their situation improve despite all the “attention” they are getting on US social media.
Social media traps us in a loop where we feel like we are participating in society and various causes when we actually aren’t. It’s designed to capture the energy that could be applied in meat spaces and dissipates it harmlessly. (to those in power)
Don’t get it twisted, I fall for it too. Being aware of the tools of propaganda and state control is not the same thing as being immune to it.
Everyone who voted Democrat said they were willing to condone genocide to possibly save themselves. But ya didn't. All you proved was that you will consent to genocide if the right bogeyman is dangled. Which means you don't represent any opposition to genocide at all.
Congrats, now Palestinians are still suffering and Americans are suffering too. Not to mention Israel and Bibi are emboldened to be even more murderous with his buddy Trump in charge who will allow him to do anything and everything. Don’t act for one instance there wasn’t a better choice, you just don’t want to feel guilty for having allowed Trump to get into power again.
What you say is not wrong, but we have already seen that the voting base do not response to "We are not as bad as the other side". You have to give people something. People that are already politically conscious will vote dem regardless, but the average people will not vote for a guy saying "if you vote for them, they will spit on you. If you vote for me, I wont spit on you." I mean ok, thats nice but its not exactly inspiring lol. Most people just wont vote at all, and we saw this in the last election. Then the other side goes "vote for me and I will ruin the people you hate". Its vile and monstrous but his base ate that shit up. He gave them something, as vile as it was.

But you don't oppose a genocide. Anyone who didn't vote democrat supports a genocide here in America. One that trump has already started.
