Profoundly incorrect on all counts. I hope your principles drown out the screams, because those of us with brains and hearts will be screaming with them.

lol no you won't. you gave the genocide a blank check via biden/harris.

Biden/Harris were at least nominally seeking a two-state solution. Biden tried to enforce one of his red lines, and Congress asserted their authority to send more weapons anyway.

Trump loves Netanyahu, will not even nominally advocate for Palestine, and has repeatedly announced his unwavering support of Israel. Palestinian coalitions pleaded that Harris wasn't as bad as Trump for Palestine. The Palestinian I send money to distribute aid said the same thing. The Palestinian-Americans I know with family in Gaza said the same thing.

Curious how the people actually affected by Israel's genocide seem to be in agreement that harm reduction is paramount, and the terminally online American leftists who won't actually suffer any consequences seem to be the only ones who didn't get the message. Them and the bad faith actors, of course.

You chose performative virtue signaling over actions that would reduce suffering for the affected parties. You have to live with that, and I hope as Trump helps Bibi "finish the job", it haunts you every night.
