You live in a fantasy and sabotage real effort to limit damage in the real world. You are responsible because you can’t swallow your pride. How incredibly selfish of you.
“You are responsible because you can’t swallow your pride. How incredibly selfish of you.”
you guys need to be a bit subtle in the gaslighting effort. where was all this anger for her supporting innocent kids being burned alive. go shout at her rallies to stop being a genocidal two faced hack. else you all are trolls trivialising an ongoing genocide and enabling future ones.
The effort to limit damage in the real world like advocating for a genocider?
Also, please do your best to act in good faith and not make things up about people.
Right now, you have 2 real choices. Every other choice is an effort to change your future choices. You want to push the democrats more left, and so do most of their voters… However your choices right now to effect the genocide are to either vote for someone that’s supporting the genocide or someone who cheers on and suggests more genocide faster. By abstaining, you’re putting yourself in the middle of the choice, which is potentially a worse outcome for Palestinians than making an upsetting choice.
That is the reality of the situation. By refusing to make an unpalatable choice, you’re helping to make a far worse outcome reality.
Does one of those choices include voting for PSL? Because that's what I'm doing. Or is that not "real"? What if I write it in extra dark ink?
Remember, I said no more fibbing. Were you never taught that lying was wrong?
Maybe that believe that in their hearts but they do the exact opposite of what they should be doing to achieve that all the time.
Hmm PSL isn't doing either sorry buddy looks like I managed to reach through the ether and do something other than vote for genociders.
PS the candidate you are defending is currently an active part of the genocide.
Remember, no fibbing!
Actually I am simply not voting for either genocidal candidate and spend my time doing meaningful work against it. And sometimes reminding liberals that they should not support genocide, since apparently they need to be told that.
There is no worse outcome than genocide.
Show me any examples of them limiting damage
