Muslim voters disillusioned with President Biden’s position on Israel are facing the prospect of a difficult choice in 2024.

    Exactly. It’s just depressing when you actually sit down and realise that if nothing else drastically changes (which it won’t just by voting) we’re pretty much guarenteed to slide into whatever shit the GOP is willing to orchestrate due to the DNC’s stance. We’ve basically got fascism and fascism-on-pause as our only options when it comes to voting. Obviously one still feels preferable to the other (nobody would claim otherwise), but take a look at the big picture and realize how screwed everything is if all we have to depend on is “voting blue no matter who” while hoping the blue’s own shitty (in this case outright murderous) stances haven’t managed to discourage enough people to stay home once again.

      I’m optimistic but in other ways. I’m optimistic that people will wake up to the manipulation taking place on both sides, and start a movement that encourages education and self-awareness. Even then, we are pretty defenseless against AI and those that may control it, but at least we will have some insight into how easily we are manipulated.
