    There are two parties that can with a US presidential election. The choices were bad or worse for Palestinians. Voting for anyone other than bad, is permitting worse to take office.

    Welcome to first past the post. It’s a civic duty, not a representation of who you are. Is it fair? Fuck no. That’s how it works for now, and the West Bank will be a billionaire resort thanks to people’s “higher morals.” Way to go. Hope they sleep better at night. The Palestinians sure won’t.

      Trump has been no worse than Democrats on Palestine, and the fact that libs think he has, shows that they’ll only be honest about the situation when Republicans are in charge.

      Hope they sleep better at night. The Palestinians sure won’t.

      It’s disgusting of you to act like you care about Palestinians.

        Are you completely outside of your mind? Trump is shipping massive bulldozers to level the West Bank and turn it into a billionaire resort, with no intention of returning the Palestinians to their land once it’s done.

        Ask yourself this, between Harris and Trump, which one is more likely to withhold munitions and military aid from Israel? Remember, this isn’t “ideal land.” Those are your only two choices.

          Democrats were already providing Israel everything it needed to level West Bank. You only say otherwise because you’re a genocide denier when it’s your team doing it.

          Harris and Trump were both equally unlikely to withhold military aid and munitions from Israel. The fact you think otherwise it’s because you’re a genocide denier when it’s your team doing it.

            Cool. So you’re in agreement that there was no way to stop the genocide.

            Then why not vote against the fascist dictator? Oh, because you have superior morals when it comes to the Palestinians, but not the Hispanics and trans people in the US. Got it.

              So you’re not even pretending to be honest.

              And yeah, nothing fascist about exterminating an entire country to expand an authoritarian ethnostate

                You are again drawing a false comparison, yet I’m the dishonest one? You’re either willfully ignorant, or delusional.

                So you’re fine with people being throw into vans and flown into El Salvadoran gulags? Trans people not being allowed to identify as their gender identity? Married women being able to vote? People being allowed to protest Israel?

                All of that is fine with you, because you didn’t have to fill in a bubble on a piece of paper that would have resulted in a similar outcome for Palestinians?

                Get over yourself and grow up. This is real life.

                  Oh sorry, I thought you said we agreed. I guess you are also “willfully ignorant or delusional”

                  So you’re fine with people being throw into vans and flown into El Salvadoran gulags? Trans people not being allowed to identify as their gender identity? Married women being able to vote?

                  So you’re fine with genocide?

                  People being allowed to protest Israel?

                  Another the thing that wasn’t allowed under Democrats either.

                  All of that is fine with you

                  Genocide is fine with you

                  have resulted in a similar outcome for Palestinians?

                  Two posts ago you were claiming that the outcome wasn’t similar and that I was delusional, but now that you’ve realised that lie isn’t going to fly, you’ve effortlessly shifted from the motte to the baily. When we can see you being willfully dishonest like this, why should we listen to you?

                  Get over yourself and grow up. This is real life

                  Baby.

                    False. I said the choices were genocide, or genocide and fascism. That’s where our debate began.

                    Good luck in life telling everyone how superior you are while distorting the world around you to fit your narrative. I’m done with your nonsense.
