    In this scenario there is no third option where nobody dies. Either half your family dies or they all die. Sometimes all the power you have is saving who you can.

    By all means, resist whoever is elected. Harris would cause fewer problems to fight over. By letting Trump win, you’re just making it harder on everyone.

      What you can do is take your struggle outside the ballot box, because there’s no hope in electoralism. No matter who wins we can defeat them, and at least if Trump wins the liberals will join us instead of just sitting around at home to wait for the next election.

        There is hope for the Palestinians who would be given asylum under Harris, but apparently your ego is more important to you than they are.

          Oh so it’s okay to exterminate the population of Gaza as long as a few are able to escape to the US.

          Also, have you noticed that Palestinians aren’t being given asylum right now?

            Not voting won’t stop the genocide. Voting might. Simple as that.

              Voting for genocide won’t stop genocide either. Harris has made it abundantly clear that she will support Israel no matter what.

              The only recourse for us is to defeat the US.

                As you said, you can defeat the US regardless of who wins, but if Harris wins Palestinians will have more options to take refuge.

                  Palestinians aren’t being given asylum right now. Trump just said the quiet part out loud.e

                  And honestly, I’m pessimistic about us being able to resist Harris. We certainly failed to resist Biden. It can certainly be done, but there’s a gulf of difference between “we can do it” and “we will do it.” That’s why I also pointed out that if Trump wins the liberals will join us instead of just sitting around at home to wait for the next election.

                    So you won’t even lift a finger to take a chance of saving Palestinians. You’ll just sit on your couch and let them die.
