Everything you said is correct. I just don't want to see all the surprised Pikachu when their inaction and self-righteousness results in a Trump victory. They'll cry, "why didn't the Palestinian and Arab Americans show up for the democrats?!"
The train hasn't hit yet there are still millions of lives we can save by doing more than just voting. If we're not willing to do everything to save them, why should they do anything to save us? I don't care how close the train is. I'll be trying to destroy the tracks until it hits me and the persons tied to the tracks. That's my point.
These memes boil an unbelievably complex issue to a binary outcome. Marginalized communities are going to be there regardless of the outcome of the elections. Don't wait until the train is about to hit you or something you care about before you decide to start dismantling the tracks. Then see how you feel when someone presumes your inevitable cleansing. I honestly feel like I'm living in Bizarro world or something. Like is what I'm saying beyond our capacity? We are doomed if we won't all step on the tracks to stop the trains.

why didn’t the democrats show up for the Palestinian?
Yes. There will be a binary outcome very very soon.
Trump will win our Harris will win.
Trump will try to make worse things happen. Kamala will try to make better things happen.
It's simple. It's binary. Trump or Harris. There is no third possibility. There are no shades of grey.
