Now, she was a major player in everything we’ve done, including passage of legislation which we were told we could never pass. And so she’s been, and her, her staff is interlocked with mine in terms of all the things we’re doing,

For everyone that said Harris was only VP and had no voice in Gaza and none of it was her decision.

    Suddenly everything is Harris’ fault now that she is running and Biden isn’t.

          And as always, anyone with the slightest misgivings about literal genocide must be a trumpist, and there can be no possible other explanation.

                You really can’t imagine answering a question, can you? I am upset about the ongoing genocide and the entire world’s governments giving Israel a free genocide pass. However, I am a realist, and I see that we have two options for president. One is super pro-genocide, and the other could maybe possibly be blamed for not stepping up to stop it. Hmm, should I go around on the internet bashing the latter?

                  You really can’t imagine answering a question, can you?

                  If you ever consider asking one in good faith, maybe you’d get an answer.

                  I am upset about the ongoing genocide and the entire world’s governments giving Israel a free genocide pass.

                  Except the one you can hold accountable but won’t.

                  However, I am a realist, and I see that we have two options for president.

                  And you’re going to gloat endlessly about it, since the “good” option is giving Netanyahu the same pass.

                  One is super pro-genocide, and the other could maybe possibly be blamed for not stepping up to stop it.

                  There is no daylight between Harris and Biden on this, and Biden has made it perfectly clear that he supports whatever Netanyahu does without condition or reservation. Her policies and his policies regarding Gaza are identical. That disappoints me and not you, so you assume I must be a trumper.

                  Hmm, should I go around on the internet bashing the latter?

                  Why would you? I don’t see you going around the internet bashing the former, either. You just bash people who are less than ecstatic about the latter in any way at all.

                    Hold on, did you think when I said “one is super pro-genocide” I was talking about Biden? That was about Trump. He fully supports wiping out Palestinians and uses the word Palestinian as a slur. Your options are that or Harris. My play is to vote Harris and then remain angry as she doesn’t take as hard of a line as I would want, assuming she actually makes it into office. What’s your play? I’m asking this in good faith, not just to stir up shit and argue online. Not voting, voting third party, or voting for Trump will definitely not stop the genocide. So what are we to do?
