    So you’re voting for Trump? Not voting? You know Trump said Israel needs to “finish the job,” right? And that he’s advocated for using nukes in the middle east? I don’t think Biden has done enough, but he’s the best alternative by a wide margin.

      Don’t forget that time Trump tried to goad Iran into a war by assassinating a military official on allied soil.

      If the choice is between complicity in genocide and saving myself the five minutes it’d take to fill out a mail-in ballot in my solid-blue state, then I’m definitely not going to bother with voting.

      Biden has every opportunity to legitimately earn my vote, but he’d rather keep selling weapons to Israel and you chose to complain to me instead of him.

        Despite the fact that trump will be ten times - easily ten times worse for Palestine?

        Ok. Weird, but it’s your vote to throw away.

          If that perspective helps you sleep at night then you’re welcome to it. Personally, I got bored with it back in 2020 when I refused to vote for Democrats after the shit they pulled in the primary.

          I don’t suppose you’d also want to hold me party to Biden’s actions in office thus far because I didn’t vote against him? XD
