Voting is not an endorsement. We had the choice between a candidate that was bad for Palestine, and a candidate that was even worse for Palestine.

It’s a pretty simple argument that someone who cares about Palestine should vote for the less bad candidate.

We had two candidates that were both pro-Palestinian genocide.

They were not equally pro genocide. Kamala said that she wanted a cease fire, and Trump wanted Israel to finish the job. These are not the same, one is clearly better.

She wanted a ceasefire, but keep sending them arms unconditionally.

Regardless, lite genocide is still genocide.

If there was a chance to save them don’t you think the Arabs in America would have taken it? It’s not like they’re any strangers to voting for the lesser of two evils on this topic. Democrats were insistent on letting Israel have a free reign just like Republicans would. So they decided to say a big fuck you to the electoral system and vote third party.

Voting third party is not a “fuck you” to anyone. No one who matters gives a shit about a third party vote.

A third party vote is a waste of a vote and no different from abstaining. A third party vote is simply shrugging in the face a fascism. Trump loves it, because it opened the way to his election.

Yes, just like Biden. And we all saw what he actually wanted, didn’t we?

Yes it is. It’s a big fuck you to the Democrats who campaigned on thinking people would vote for them automatically because they’re not Trump. That failed epically.
