  • You don’t think the Gaza situation is worse now than prior? I don’t know what to tell you, except go look at a timeline of the absolute leveling of Gaza and come back and tell me it’s the same level of destruction as years past. We can argue all day about protest votes and what they mean, but to tell me that the ramped up destruction in Gaza is democratic propaganda is delusional.

    You also keep mentioning October 2023 as when this started, the attacks on Palestinians have been an issue for decades, so did you just not vote in any election because no candidate has chosen to figure out a real solution?

    I know nothing I say will change your mind, and I’m not changing mine, but please realize politicians can’t be voted on for one ticket items. There is no such thing as a perfect candidate that ticks every box everyone wants. There is, however, almost always a candidate that will work better than another for your own viewpoints. A nonvote can not change or impact anything.


  • I’m almost 100% sure, that if Harris had won, my neighbors wouldn’t be rounded up and disappeared. I’m also sure that lgbt rights wouldn’t be eroded Also, pretty certain SNAP would be currently funded I know tariffs wouldn’t be a problem I know the white house would literally be in one piece I know there wouldn’t be a child rapist leading this country The list goes on and on.

    In addition to EVERYTHING else, would Gaza still be standing? I’d bet money on a Vegas table that, yes, it would be. Would deaths be zero? Probably not, but full on genocide at the scale we are currently seeing?

    Perfect is the enemy of good. It doesn’t mean we can’t fight for perfect, but fighting for perfect is way easier when you’re not being kidnapped or starving in your own country.

  • Do you ever listen to the flight safety briefings on planes? Mask yourself before anyone else during a crash. You have to be alive and conscious to help others.

    Myself, family, friends, and neighbors in that order need to be protected and safe before I can put my full attention on other groups. That doesn’t mean I don’t care, I donate to orgs that can do those things. I will pick a less perfect candidate that will help protect those around me.

    Would you vote for someone who calls out the genocide of the Palestinian people but would also destroy social services where you live that you might rely on?
