My wife is Indonesian Muslim, hates Kamala for what we’re doing in Palestine and told me not to vote for her. I’m still voting for Kamala but man that was a hard conversation I never would have expected. Seems like the military owns everything these days

She understands that Trump would actively get on the ground and help the IDF out if he could, right?

Oof, that must be a weird conversation. Am Indonesian.

Any conversation touching Islam adjacent lost any nuance with the general population more often than not . Not saying your wife is one, but let’s be honest the education quality here is abysmal and at the same time we’re number 1 muslim by population. Also our “Netizen” is notorious for wrongly attacking any issue they misunderstood.

One of our top singer got berated nationwide because she wore a skirt with a random arabic text in it, people thought it was a Holy script and she’s Christian.

I kid you not one election season I saw an angry mob with a banner that said USA = COMMUNIST !!

Most have hard enough time just to get by day to day so I get it, they take anything to blame. With corruption top to bottom it’s a sad state all around. I’m grateful it’s still a relatively peaceful affair though, at least here in Java.

The hard part is, she gets to pick between genocide, and genocide with fewer rights for women.

I don’t understand why she’d pick the latter, but anger does crazy things.

It’s “I’m fucked” vs “I’m fucked and those that fucked me die too”.

In defense Kamala is actively in power with Biden and has had many chances to voice and make change on this issue and she hasn’t. We know what we will get with Kamala, and it’s a lot like Biden all over again

Well, seeing a lot of the positives Biden has done, or tried to do but the repubs shut down purely out of spite, I’m still fully voting for Kamala.

We also know what we’d get with Trump. He’s pretty forward about wanting Israel to finish the genocide quicker.

Have you considered having solidarity with your wife? Did you convince her to vote Kamala, or is this still a wedge issue? Or are you not even telling her?

Your copy/pasted comment is telling people to defeat MAGA with socialism. But first let’s get it to hard mode by having MAGAs take over and do Project 2025, right?

A Socialist revolution is “hard mode” whether the Democrats or Republicans are in charge, I don’t know where you’re getting the idea that the establishment parties would be any friendlier or more hostile to a literal revolution.

I also don’t know why you’re saying I am suggesting voting for Trump either, not once have I encouraged it.

Have you considered having solidarity with your wife?

Have you ever considered that people aren’t a hive mind?

They’re both the party of genocide. No matter what, your next president does genocide. Your vote helps decide which you get to protest under.

And you’d at least get to protest under Harris. Trump openly wants to go Tiananmen Square on you if you protest.

But you won’t. Nobody’s accountable. Nobody was accountable for iraq. Nobody was accountable for lybia. Your country lies and lies and you’re too cowardy to face the criminals unless they are poor ghettos black people. They can create war out of lies and destroy countless lives, not only are they free but they get media attention to endorse whichever warcrimers gonna suck dicks next.

You make me sick.

The rest of the world is looking at the US with contempt right now. Far-right germany, britains and the aussies are the only allies you have left. Fuck you.
