    you can talk around it with all the mental gymnastics you like, but ultimately voting for biden is a signal to the democratic party that their base doesn’t care about genocide enough to not vote for him, which is all they care about

      And not voting for Biden resulting in a Trump victory signals an immediate end to Palestinians, among many other horrible atrocities to come as the US declines into a mix of Plutocracy and Evangelical Theocracy.

        implying palestine will last until january

        oh ho ho

        if you’re fine with the trade off, make the trade off and vote biden

        just don’t pretend the trade off isn’t happening

          There is urgency for every single life at risk in this conflict, but it’s not debateable that Palestine absolutely will exist in January and that the differences in US Admin could very well be the difference of hundreds of thousands of lives following the election.

            i don’t think the current round of genocide will last until january, no, whether or not a state called palestine is left standing or not

            you’re trading in the lives of the next palestine
