    Why does Trump always get a pass?

    It’s like everyone against him has to be an utter saint, and one wrong move? Welp, voting for Trump, I guess.

    And yes, strategically… this makes no sense for anyone who cares about what’s happening in Israel.

      Saint? Saint?! Do you understand what you’re saying right now? The Harris campaign has repeatedly refused to even engage with Arab voters, let alone address their concerns about their friends and family being murdered. To Arab American voters and organizations who have been thoroughly ignored and excluded by the Harris campaign, yeah fuck that of course they’re not voting for her.

        It’s amazing what lengths you’ll go to to make apologia for ushering in fascism.

          Sigh Do you understand how condescending you’re being right now? I got zero sympathy for y’all if Trump loses. With this attitude you’re doing it to yourselves. By the way you should read this. It’s just a Lemmy comment, but it summarizes what I wanna say to you and people who act like you better than I can myself.

            Oh, I’m so sorry for condescending to people who think it’s no big deal if people like me are thrown into a camp and murdered for literally no gain, material or moral, for them, because it makes their privileged asses feel smug about how pure they are, or some bullshit.

            Well, put yourself in their shoes, and ask yourself why the fuck you would care what happens then? If your family is going to be genocided either way, and one party is going to be worse, but the end result is the same… Why do you care? Your allies don’t care, so why should you?

            “It’s going to be worse, but also the same; and why would you care about literally anyone else?”

            Like I said. It’s like calling for LGBT folk to usher in Bush Jr. because Al Gore isn’t LGBT-friendly enough. But hey, fuck everyone else and yourselves, right? It’s about that feeling of purity you get when filling out your ballot, right?

              Yeah I got nothing else to say. If you think that makes you a guardian of democracy or whatever instead of a bootlicker, then go ahead. I’m not American either way so I’ll be watching with popcorn.

                “Ha ha good thing America doesn’t affect the rest of the world, and who cares about American minorities getting genocided anyway?”

                Do you lot even try anymore?

        Also the democratic party has been in power, enabling the genocide for over a year.

          That genocide has been going on for more than an adminstration though.
