You don’t give a shit about queer people’s rights or about brown people getting deported by the millions.

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?

Says me since you're ignoring the fact that I'm talking about conversion camps for queer people and you are ignoring it and focusing on the deportations. Conversion camps are something the people behind Project 2025 want. And the only way to stop them is to stop them from doing it is to keep Trump out of office.

"Your daughter probably won't be put in a concentration camp despite what they're saying because Trump doesn't keep all of his promises" is the opposite of reassuring, which is why I'm making sure I'm using my dual citizenship to get her the fuck out of here if she wins.

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?

My turn? You never said what you've done.

I have spent the entire time this genocide has been going on working with Jewish Voice for Peace to try to stop it.

Seems like what you've done is whine on internet forums.

Edit: I'll take it from the crickets that what it seems like is also what is true.
