ITT: people who don’t know how the American electoral system works.
If Trump is polling higher than Biden (he is) then abstaining from voting only allows Trump to gain a wider lead on Biden because MAGA voters are unified and couldn’t give 2 shits if brown people in Gaza are being slaughtered in the streets. Literally every single POTUS, both Democrat and Republican, since 1948 (including Obama) have supported Israel. It’s official US foreign policy. Trump changed the location of the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem as a symbolic “fuck you” to Palestine, and he will increase the violence in the region by giving more money to Israel (probably by removing all money given to Ukraine).
Vote accordingly, but cut the fucking shit about your conscientious objectionism. You aren’t accomplishing shit.
Bidens disapproval rating was already over 55% before Oct 7th. This made it worse obviously. I think he can win by a landslide and actually get more approval than he had before if he just calls for a permanent ceasefire.
Literally all Biden has to do to clench the election is demand a ceasefire and halt aid if Israel refuses. Most voters will look past his many failures during the 1st term if he does that.
Just don’t be genocidal. It’s such an incredibly low bar.
All democrats had to do was run any of the many progressive candidates in 2020 because we all knew exactly what we were getting w/ Biden. It’s just too fucking late to change ships. If any one of these anti-genocide voters primaried for Biden they fucked up and you know it had to be a good portion of them.
First, yes, this is US foreign policy. That doesn’t give it any legitimacy though. They killed and raped Palestinians in 1948 too and ever since then, all with US backing. All Biden has to do is pick up the phone, call Netanyahu, say “we are not going to fund this anymore”. Thats it. Although, he won’t and it wouldn’t even mean that US aid to israel would stop altogether. An example is multiple states have their employee pension funds tied up in israel bonds, including NY and Texas.

It’s the primaries, dipshit

I mean the fuck up was 2016 and Bernie…
Even 2020 was triage of massive bleeding and continues to be today.
The only hope now is to keep Trump out of office at all cost and work on 2028…
Nothing else matters, even the genocide as horrible as it is. If Trump wins all bets are off and they’ll never be another chance in our lifetime.
I need to make a list of things really at stake during this elect:
-Democracy
-Supreme Court governing from the bench
-gay marriage
-trans rights
Unfortunately Isreal is not on the table. That’s because democrats need to do better and stop primarying center right coorpo’s.
Just to start us off.
If this “democracy” is a bipartisan consensus on unlimited genocide, I say fuck this democracy, let it burn.
I mean you think that actually matters? You’re so cute!

The MAGA campaign is pushing this narrative so the dem base will just argue amongst themselves.
It’s a huge own goal. You’ll end up with Trump through sheer ineptitude.
the fucking irony lol
