More than 100 Arizona Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, and progressive Democrats and community leaders have signed a letter making the case for those reluctant to support Kamala Harris against Donald Trump.
“We know that many in our communities are resistant to vote for Kamala Harris because of the Biden administration’s complicity in the genocide,” the letter, published Thursday night, reads.
“Some of us have lost many family members in Gaza and Lebanon. We respect those who feel they simply can’t vote for a member of the administration that sent the bombs that may have killed their loved ones,” the letter continued. “As we consider the full situation carefully, however, we conclude that voting for Kamala Harris is the best option for the Palestinian cause and all of our communities.”
I will not vote for those people.
why not? either one would be better than harris or trump at this time. primarily due to the fact neither has the support of a major group of genocidal congress critters.
Because they won’t win and it would be a wasted vote. I live my life aware of reality.
Feel free to read my post history many explanations on how to vote intelligently without risking a trump presidency. You’ll probably be surprised its not ‘dont vote harris’. Its ‘under these conditions your best option is likely…’ which both undermines harris platform with other Democrats, supports ending a genocide, and lets you stop spouting nonsense everywhere.
I did find your comment describing how to view depending on which type of state you live in. None of the 3rd party candidates appeal to me, though.
Jill Stein is a Putin Puppet, and the libertarian party has said they want Trump in office because he has mentioned putting a libertarian in a cabinet position. Ignoring all of the warnings signs just so they can have 5 minutes of fame is shallow to me.
Harris is overall the best candidate to me. Her views have the most overlap with mine.
Great, then vote for harris’ in full knowledge that you’re condoning a genocide. Justify it however you wish to yourself. I dont mind, its your vote. my only goal here is to get people to stop acting like a vote 3rd party is the end of the world and hopefully change a few minds and give them a way to vote for protecting gaza without risking a trump presidency.
You’re*
Cleaned up thanks. :)
Judging by your first sentence, I think your goal is to put people down for voting for a candidate you don’t like. Justify it however you want, I’m just tired of seeing people hyper focused on one foreign policy issue that, once resolved, will be forgotten about until that region is destabilized again.
Broaden your horizons, think freely, and don’t vote for a President who isn’t worthy of the office.
Uh when have i ever put someone down for voting for harris? Ive been putting people down for being ignorant twats for being holier than thou about voting for lesser evils as if its the only option in play. Those are two very different things. I think harris is a horrible candidate in general, so did many Americans in 2019 and apparently in 2024. Her platform is horrible; and shes willing to allow a minority group to be murder for votes. But i totally get why people prefer her over trump. Im just not willing to support her in my state. Why? Firstly its unnecessary, secondly it ensures my politicians know voters will leave them.
Finally you’re comfortable with commiting genocide i get it. Im not. You do you. Personally i dont think we should be supplying weapons for mass murder of a people and apparently our laws feel the same. So maybe our law and order candidate should get on board the no genocide train.
But you will vote for genociders? Please do some introspection.
You and your gang at .ml don’t have a problem with genocide. Why are you pretending to? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegations_of_genocide_of_Ukrainians_in_the_Russo-Ukrainian_War
If you would like to decenter the genocide of Palestinians, I will gladly discuss your bullshit presumptions in another thread. Feel free to make one and ping me.
