Unfortunately we are in the same position with both candidates. You can't be President of the US and have clean hands
True but the meme claims "spotless record" which is not true
I guess when both candidates have "Genocide Participant" credits it no longer matters to compared that specific item.
Say that back to yourself out loud, and see if it still sounds right.
Disarming Israel is not on the ballot. I wish it were, but we are where we are. Comparing the candidates on issues where they do differ significantly makes the decision pretty easy.
I guess we’ll see in 4 days if disarming Israel should have been on the ballot.
It’s absolutely on the ballot:
Ok that's interesting. Not fully compelling but I'll admit it's interesting. I'd certainly be happier if disarming Israel were one of the options in this election. It's a shame that it isn't. A burning shame on the DNC.
And that's what they mean by maybe it should have been on the ballot. If the Dems lose (to Trump of all people) they'll really only have themselves to blame. They could've done things people liked but decided not to.
Hopefully Trump loses but the Dems are really trying to make it a close one.
What for? There are absolutely no real options to avoid the Israel/Palestine conflict. So as an adult who understands that there are some things I can and cannot influence I move on to those I can influence.
One candidate is leagues above the other.
Anyone who says "well your candidate will be bad for Israel/Palestine" is being disingenuous because both will suck. Thats bait and a distraction.
Going 3rd party or abstaining from voting are both stupid approaches.
I voted for Harris. Did you know there are ways to advocate for Harris without excusing the genocide?
