ah yes great. we get to select plain or polite genocide. as vile as trump is nuking gaza seems like a mercy compared to the slow death from hunger or burning them alive which is being done with biden blessing and not a single statement from harris to even acknowledge this genocide.
Yes, it's awful you only get two choices and neither will do enough about palenstine. But what about the other issues? Reproductive and LGTBQ rights? Surely Harris would be better on that front?
These people don't actually care about rights. They have found a single issue to throw all of their weight behind and are blind to everything that doesn't support their position 100%.
I guarantee you there are large numbers of Palestinians who would not pass their 'care about genocide' purity test based solely on things like thinking that Harris will result in less death than Trump.
this is not a single issue. dnc has become as evil as trump. They don’t care about pregnant women getting shot by snipers and bombed in hospitals and you think they give a rat ass about women’s rights.
lgbt, abortition are issues in 21st century because of their complicity. a vote for kamal is endorsing gencoide and continue this spiral of decline.
have you seen the footage of what’s happening in gaza ? how offensive to suggest that they should vote for a candidate who is already been burning their family alive for a year. rot in hell with that mentality.
Thanks for proving my point.
You don't give a shit about queer people's rights or about brown people getting deported by the millions.
Claiming democrats are just as bad as Trump on these issues is a disgusting lie at the expense of queer people.
No Democrat would do any of this. Harris certainly wouldn't:

Project 2025 would make that exponentially worse. It would be another genocide. Plus the genocide he's made clear he's going to do with brown people by deporting as many as he possibly can, which would literally require concentration camps.
You care about one single issue and you don't even care if Palestinians agree with you on your ideas.
says who? first off there are far more levers one can pull to support lgbt rights in your home state that are far more effectual than national policies. go focus on those and the presidents support of those issues is not required for their safety.
as for the deportations, you know what those are not? death sentences. it sucks but the majority of those people will be just fine. they have time.
you know who doesn't have time? gaza.
its okay to admit you're willing to support a genocide, it makes you a shitty person but its okay. we'll wait for your to get over the cognitive dissonance.
as for project 2025: vote down ballot would be an effective counter to that little issue.
No one cares if you vote for kamala, there are very good reasons to vote for her if you're in a swing state or a red state. We do care that you're letting a genocide happen and bitching about the people trying to stop it.
now your turn: What have you done to help to help stop a genocide? called your reps lately? emailed kamala? or are you just an armchair pontificating? have you even once threatened them with withholding your vote? you know its okay to do so. they won't know you voted for them in the end. have you responded to any polls saying you wont vote for kamala?
cool go vote for her. maybe in next election prison slavery will be a single issue we should ignore. we all know harris is cool with it. oh wait she is also cool with fracking, deportation , campaigning with the war profiteers cheneys. seems like she is also trying to catch up on trump’s bigotry.

I will. I don't want my daughter or any other people forcibly marched into conversion camps.
That won't happen under a Harris administration. Trump's people are sure implying it will under his.
Why does that not make a difference to you?
same way ruthless genocide with our tax dollars and support doesn’t make a difference to you. does the housing and cost of living crisis under biden bothers you ?
and honestly trump stupid claims are unlikely to be reality just like the wall. dnc amplifies all that because they have nothing else to campaign for. biden didn’t do anything about roe vs wade so he can his reelection campaign on it.
by voting for harris you are only postponing what trump will actually do by a few years or may be even worse. for americas future both gop and dnc needs to destroyed and every lobbyist jailed.
"He probably won't put your daughter in a camp" is not the good argument you think it is. I'm guessing you don't have kids. But if you do, I hope for their sake none of them are queer.
seems like you are the one with the single agenda. yes i don’t have kids and can’t even think of it in this economy but if trump and anyone else comes for your kid then me and millions others unhappy with dnc will still be there to defend them even if we have helplessly seen kids in gaza blown to bits and thousands others loosing their home to settlers in westbank.
