Stop making this an election issue. It’s not. You’re just helping Trump
Having your tax dollar fund an active genocide is an issue for many of us
Except you don’t have a choice, so it isn’t. The only election issues are ones that you can participate in. The US will sell arms to Israel. That’s not going to stop, no matter who is elected. How about we elect the person who may not actively encourage them to use them relentlessly on civilians. That’s an issue you get to vote on.
This is the issue for me. I care about other things too, but I won’t vote for someone funding a genocide.
I’m hoping I can throw my support behind Kamala (if she is the nominee). She seems to be a less blindly pro-Israel than Biden, but I’ll feel better if she confirms it.
I’ll understand if she has to wait until after the convention before declaring a stance.
The US was founded on genocide. Right here, on this soil. And everyone at the time went along with it in the name of Manifest Destiny. But it didn’t end there. The US either directly or indirectly enabled genocide around the world through most of its history.
What happens when you can’t support Kamala? And Trump wins? He absolutely supports genocide and will help it along at a scale we’ve yet to see in Palestine. And worse. And he’ll bring problems directly to you, in your own home.
Would you trade millions of dead men, women, and children in Palestine for millions of dead men, women, and children in Palestine, other countries, and here at home as well?
Because I don’t see what you have to gain by helping Trump win.
What right do you have to tell people what issues are important to them when they are deciding who to vote for? What about Muslim voters? Should they just forget about the genocide because you said so?
“Stop complaining about starving children being blown to pieces because I want to win!”
