An abstain from voting is a vote that says "I'm fine with anyone or everyone". An abstain is a vote that says "I am complacent to the outcome".
If you want to protest, if nothing else, write in.
They didn't draw the line at genocide. If you stand and watch and do nothing you are complicit in the genocide.
I'll quote another comment of mine in this same thread.
The continuing refusal of liberals to have any empathy for Palestinians is entirely emblematic of the failures of the democratic party. Over and over and over again you will compromise on genocide, compromise on human rights itself, to defend the disgusting political decisions of the democratic establishment. It's never the fault of the democratic establishment for funding and arming a genocide, it's always the fault of the minorities who wouldn't vote for a party support the killing of their families and razing of their communities. How in god's name do you plan to fight against fascism if you can't even stand against racist colonialist ideology in the political party you support?
Yeah, no. We don't have that many Palestinians here.
And how many people do you think did not vote for specifically because of her continued support of Israel? How many people are you imagining here?
