    No, I’m sorry, I just don’t think Kamala is making Gaza the number one issue, which is why I think the only reasonable choice is to either not vote, or vote Stein.

    edit: I cannot believe I have to add /s

    Literally every fucking election they pull this same shit, and every fucking election WE FALL FOR IT LIKE MORONS!!!

    The morons on the other side fall for “Trump is obviously a good Christian!”, but we fall for this which is almost as transparent as “Hey, look over there!”

      “We have the Palestinians and we have everybody else rioting all over the place. You talk about Charlottesville. This is one hundred times Charlottesville,” Trump said during a presidential debate in July, equating pro-Palestinian activism with a 2017 attack by White supremacists in Virginia.

      I hope you enjoyed your high horse. Because this might be the last Palestine protest you can effectively make.

      Can’t wait for the trump dictatorship aparratus to get started thanks to takes like this. Im sure Gaza will appreciate the sentiment all the same since trump has made clear his policies are even worse.

      You will never be forgiven

      Edit: with all we’ve seen sarcasm may be a little hard to detect

      Not saying you are either a Russian or just a fucking idiot, but in my opinion someone that holds this view point, is either a Russian, or a fucking idiot. I repeat, this is not towards you, it is towards the Russians and fucking idiots that hold this view point.

            I’m not quite this pessimistic but am still holding onto people think US has a lot more say over this situation than it does. Israel will eventually decide to stop

      I’m not entirely sure what your point is, but I see third party votes are well under the margin between the two main candidates

      You’re getting downvotes because people didn’t get far enough through your comment. I almost didn’t.

      I highly doubt that most people even considered Gaza issue when deciding who they vote for. It’s mostly lemmy/farleft thing.

      Sorry to piss on your parade but… Uh… Your attitude (the one behind the sarcasm) is the reason democrats lost this. That aside, at this point it’s probably less about Gaza and more about Harris campaigning with the brainpower of a 5 YO. Like if Trump is winning this badly then yeah it was hopeless to begin with.

        Yup, my attitude is exactly why.

        Not the endless screaming voices of ‘BoTh SiDeS!!!’ and voting for anybody but stein is a vote for genocide, it was all me.

        Mwa ha ha, my evil plan has been successful, and I’ve finally enslaved the world’s greatest superpower to a elderly rapist in a diaper!!!

        Fucking stupid children, I swear.
