Harry Potter and the magical thinking of white “leftists” who think PoC and Queer Folks and Women being too loud to ignore about how 4 more years of Trump will be incredibly bad for them is “extortion.”

You talked me into it I guess – I promise not to vote for Netanyahu in the election in November.
Unfortunately, there is no option that won’t support Bibi, right? Vote for whoever, or don’t vote at all…your tax dollars will fund the genocide in Gaza. But let’s demonize the protesters
But let’s demonize the protesters
Who the fuck here is doing that? Seriously. Who?
Exactly.
But forget it…this is the echo chamber to end all echo chambers.
or don’t vote at all
What a fascinating, totally organic outgrowth of your deep concern for the Palestinian people, and the voice of the protestors. I hear you. It makes perfect sense.
Go to any protest, and you’ll hear the chants of “Please! Don’t! Vote! … Please! Don’t! Vote!” And then comes the tear gas, from the people who would suppress that vital message.
Talk to any Palestinian, and through the cries of their children, you’ll hear them choke over the phone, in a voice half twisted by starvation and misery and lost loved ones, that if they had one wish they could communicate to the people of America, it would be finally for not voting in the American election in November to be a respected point of view.
You are carrying their message. It’s only a damn shame that so many misinterpret your motives, and think that somehow, you might have some other reason for spreading it so vigorously.
If that’s the only bit you want to quote, you may be missing the context. Being an apologist for genocide is gross, no matter what 4D chess you think you’re playing. Unless Biden dies, I’ll be voting for him. However, I will never Stan for someone continuing on as he has.
I didn’t demonize any protestors.
I didn’t apologist for any genocide.
I’m not stanning for anyone in particular. I am giving Biden criticism over his material support for a genocide, while arguing that the meme you posted up there is a bunch of horseshit as applied to this election.
Most of your comment had nothing to do with me; it seems to be just inventing some views for me that are more comfortable to argue against than anything I actually believe, so I didn’t respond to them too much.
If you want to say that Biden’s bad for supporting a genocide, but that we should still vote for him, that’s something I can very much get behind on both counts. But that’s nothing to do with the meme or with your other comments.
