Now, she was a major player in everything we’ve done, including passage of legislation which we were told we could never pass. And so she’s been, and her, her staff is interlocked with mine in terms of all the things we’re doing,

For everyone that said Harris was only VP and had no voice in Gaza and none of it was her decision.

    Hold on, did you think when I said “one is super pro-genocide” I was talking about Biden? That was about Trump. He fully supports wiping out Palestinians and uses the word Palestinian as a slur. Your options are that or Harris. My play is to vote Harris and then remain angry as she doesn’t take as hard of a line as I would want, assuming she actually makes it into office. What’s your play? I’m asking this in good faith, not just to stir up shit and argue online. Not voting, voting third party, or voting for Trump will definitely not stop the genocide. So what are we to do?

      No, I thought you were talking about Trump. I don’t see you bashing him, just people who express displeasure at genocide.

      Same. That doesn’t mean I have to go around calling anyone who isn’t 100% on board with genocide a fucking trumper.

      I’m asking this in good faith, not just to stir up shit and argue online.

      And then you immediately do this:

      Not voting, voting third party, or voting for Trump will definitely not stop the genocide.

      And I have never advocated for any of these. Just because you immediately assume that anyone who has a problem with genocide is a trumper, that doesn’t make it the case.

      So what are we to do?

      I know! We should apply no pressure whatsoever to the Democratic Party or their candidate. That way, if Harris beats Trump while running on not changing a thing about US foreign policy as it pertains to the Gaza genocide, she can interpret our restrained tacit approval as a mandate from the people to continue supporting genocide.

      Or we can register our disapproval, but you’ll assume that’s just trump support in all cases.

        It’s just weird to me that when this topic comes up, y’all never throw out the comparison with Trump’s stance on the issue. It’s always focused solely on Biden/Harris. Anyway, have a good day and for the love of god vote for Harris.
