    Thanks for proving my point.

    You don’t give a shit about queer people’s rights or about brown people getting deported by the millions.

    Claiming democrats are just as bad as Trump on these issues is a disgusting lie at the expense of queer people.

    No Democrat would do any of this. Harris certainly wouldn’t:

    Project 2025 would make that exponentially worse. It would be another genocide. Plus the genocide he’s made clear he’s going to do with brown people by deporting as many as he possibly can, which would literally require concentration camps.

    You care about one single issue and you don’t even care if Palestinians agree with you on your ideas.

      You don’t give a shit about queer people’s rights or about brown people getting deported by the millions.

      says who? first off there are far more levers one can pull to support lgbt rights in your home state that are far more effectual than national policies. go focus on those and the presidents support of those issues is not required for their safety.

      as for the deportations, you know what those are not? death sentences. it sucks but the majority of those people will be just fine. they have time.

      you know who doesn’t have time? gaza.

      its okay to admit you’re willing to support a genocide, it makes you a shitty person but its okay. we’ll wait for your to get over the cognitive dissonance.

      as for project 2025: vote down ballot would be an effective counter to that little issue.

      No one cares if you vote for kamala, there are very good reasons to vote for her if you’re in a swing state or a red state. We do care that you’re letting a genocide happen and bitching about the people trying to stop it.

      now your turn: What have you done to help to help stop a genocide? called your reps lately? emailed kamala? or are you just an armchair pontificating? have you even once threatened them with withholding your vote? you know its okay to do so. they won’t know you voted for them in the end. have you responded to any polls saying you wont vote for kamala?

        Says me since you’re ignoring the fact that I’m talking about conversion camps for queer people and you are ignoring it and focusing on the deportations. Conversion camps are something the people behind Project 2025 want. And the only way to stop them is to stop them from doing it is to keep Trump out of office.

        “Your daughter probably won’t be put in a concentration camp despite what they’re saying because Trump doesn’t keep all of his promises” is the opposite of reassuring, which is why I’m making sure I’m using my dual citizenship to get her the fuck out of here if she wins.

        now your turn: What have you done to help to help stop a genocide? called your reps lately? emailed kamala? or are you just an armchair pontificating? have you even once threatened them with withholding your vote? you know its okay to do so. they won’t know you voted for them in the end. have you responded to any polls saying you wont vote for kamala?

        My turn? You never said what you’ve done.

        I have spent the entire time this genocide has been going on working with Jewish Voice for Peace to try to stop it.

        Seems like what you’ve done is whine on internet forums.

        cool go vote for her.

        I will. I don’t want my daughter or any other people forcibly marched into conversion camps.

        That won’t happen under a Harris administration. Trump’s people are sure implying it will under his.

        Why does that not make a difference to you?

          same way ruthless genocide with our tax dollars and support doesn’t make a difference to you. does the housing and cost of living crisis under biden bothers you ?

          and honestly trump stupid claims are unlikely to be reality just like the wall. dnc amplifies all that because they have nothing else to campaign for. biden didn’t do anything about roe vs wade so he can his reelection campaign on it.

          by voting for harris you are only postponing what trump will actually do by a few years or may be even worse. for americas future both gop and dnc needs to destroyed and every lobbyist jailed.

            “He probably won’t put your daughter in a camp” is not the good argument you think it is. I’m guessing you don’t have kids. But if you do, I hope for their sake none of them are queer.

              seems like you are the one with the single agenda. yes i don’t have kids and can’t even think of it in this economy but if trump and anyone else comes for your kid then me and millions others unhappy with dnc will still be there to defend them even if we have helplessly seen kids in gaza blown to bits and thousands others loosing their home to settlers in westbank.

                Protecting my child is not an agenda.

                me and millions others unhappy with dnc will still be there to defend them

                I don’t believe that in the slightest.
