Cool, now what about people speaking up about an active genocide? Isn’t genocide worse? I’m sure the families dying feel rather unsafe…

I doubt either the victims of either (LGBT+ and Palestinians) aren’t wishing away outside support

Honestly, you can either understand the plain and simple English of what the Palestinian person said that I then linked to, or you can't. If you can't, then it's probably not my place to try to break it down for you, and my effort to do regardless hasn't been working anyway.

So, good luck with your political advocacy. Cheers.

Oh please, none of that tracks. You mean the unverifiable single Palestinian?

Good luck with your gymnastics and propaganda

Giving criticism and resistance to the genocide I'm very in favor of; maybe that wasn't clear so far. Taking the leap into "and that's why we don't need to keep Trump out of power anymore" is the only portion of it that starts to confuse and alarm me.

To your point - can we verify that all of the people saying it's very important not to vote, for the sake of the Palestinian people, are being genuine about where they live and their background and motivations?

'Cause I have some questions about some of that shit, if we're doin' verifying.
