    The people that was the opposite of helping prevent genocide were Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. That is the truth.

          Because we live in the real world where we recognize that Trump or Harris were going to be the next president, and Harris’ ambiguity on Gaza and susceptibility to pressure from Democrat voters is, while not ideal, still better than Trump’s open lust for Muslim blood and complete indifference to what pro-palestinian voters want.

          Because I am not so blinded by my own self-centered, egotistical view of moral purity as to throw away my vote on retaining civilian rights.

        Question: do you do anything besides voting? Did you phonebank? Canvas? Do you work in your community: volunteer at a soup kitchen, community garden, etc?

        You’re looking for someone to blame, but arguing on the internet isn’t going to solve anything. We have four years to organize, protect, and uplift each other. There are people that need our help.

            That’s the problem with electoralism. Too many people just figure they can turn in a piece of paper every 2-4 years and that will save us from fascism.

            I believe in voting as harm reduction, but nobody is coming to save us.
