2.popular vote doesn't count for shit
3.bullshit Harris did nothing for the left, she was too busy speaking over them
Biden made concessions to the left like student loan reform and also there was mail in voting and trumps covid failure helped him
So the Palestinians just get genocide and that's alright with you because ends justify the means, cool.
What about the genocide in Ukraine being caused by Iran’s drones and Russias invasion. Just let Iran produce more drones for Russia while Russia entrenches itself in Syria, cool.
The only way to stop the genocide in Gaza is to replace Netanyahu. But the Russian/Iranian bots aren’t pushing that talking point.
Ok I think I understand, brown genocide acceptable, white genocide not acceptable.
Whataboutwhataboutwhataboutwhatabout
So you’re saying you think white genocide is acceptable but brown genocide not acceptable.
Whataboutwhataboutwhataboutwhatabout
Not at all, your just trying to deflect.
At the end of the day what your really saying is we have to stop ukraine from becoming a second Palestine.
Im not saying we shouldn't support ukraine, never has that been my position as you are now implying.
All I said is the Democrats failed to even have a conversation about it, they tried to bulldoze through it.
Because it is foreign actors that are pushing to stop weapon sales to Israel and that would give Iran and Russia such a military advantage that it isn’t an option.
Ok perhaps, but maybe if they had less weapons they would reserve them for use against I dunno not a civilian population.
You gotta have a redline.
At the end of the day we aren't responsible for the actions of others only our own.
We can't stop israel from bombing civilians but we can stop giving them bombs.
I can't make the democrats sanction israel, but I can withhold my vote.
And if you want to bitch about iran then holy shit dawg don't get me started on how this is all the USA's fault to begin with.
They had democracy and we overthrew it for a puppet and now they have fucking theocracy. I should know Im Iranian.
China, Russia, Iran, North Korea all working together to start World War 3 which would cause more genocide than 10 Gazas.
Withholding your vote will cause more genocide.
To be clear I never withheld my vote.
I voted for Kamala, Biden, Clinton, and Obama
