Voting in a first past the post election is binary. That’s not an opinion you can agree with, it’s math. Sometimes you only get to choose the least shitty option. If Trump and Vance do what they promised, there is a non trivial chance you won’t even get to do that - like in Hungary, Iran or Russia - where they have elections, but not really.
You voted to wipe out the Palistinians.
You don’t believe me?
What is Trump’s position on Palestine?
It’s support BeBe with whatever he wants. There is no two state solution in the Republican platform.
But you’re just not willing to understand what it was like for other people. Because, I completely understand your position. These things are both true. But…that’s exactly my point. The “correct” solution isn’t binary. The system may give you only binary choices, but the truth isn’t simply your vote for one or the other.
This is exactly what’s fucked up about it. For some, it was a vanity thing. “Well, I didn’t vote for it!” That type of thing. It’s not about the people, but about their own outward appearance of who they are based on their “correct” politics.
But seeing as how that is also true, it is also true that everything that’s already been happening, Palestinians slaughtered, starved, tortured, raped, just completely dehumanized. This has all been happening under a dem admin.
And what neither of us has touched on: The US is a massive, powerful machine running on money. I don’t think, even if we got the strongest pro-Palestinian voice available in office, that they would be able to slow this machine down. Which is the sad truth. We don’t get to vote for the true levers of power.
We should be uniting over that tragic, infuriating fact. Not fighting over “you’re responsible for this!” This type of shit is exactly how the democrat is the best choice we can make. And it makes very little material difference in the horrors we have to see and endure.

What we say doesn’t matter now, you won.

Can’t we agree on that?
