i find it hard to talk about someone’s policies other than gleefully supporting and arming a genocide… everything else is small potatoes….
like when she pretended like protesters were antisemitic and not anti-genocide… released a long statement just completely ignoring why they were there….
biden bypassed congress to give them more weapons….
they also helped fight the genocide in Ukraine… trump would help the israel genocide, russia’s genocide… and then get pretty genocidal with latinos in america… so i’m puking while voting for harris… no need to convert me….
…
it’s not just cereal i don’t like though
I'm glad you're at least willing to see what's worse. Maybe we'll be pleasantly surprised by her policies regarding Isreal-- I did hear recently that only 17% of Israelis want Harris, vs (I think it was) 63% for Trump and his "finish the job" rhetoric. So if Israel hates her, that's probably a good sign.
I disagree. It's all small potatoes compared to climate policy; if we don't address that, Israel, Palestine, Russia and Ukraine will be fucked, as will all the rest of us. Trump is markedly worse there, so really, it should be no contest.
Look, I get the outcry over this issue, but here's the thing: Biden isn't Kamala, and all of this rhetoric is acting like she is. Additionally, Congress passes the budgets that determine where this aid goes, not the president. Furthermore, it's obviously a hotbutton issue on both sides and chances are she and her team of professionals analyzed the chances of she denounces Israel vs. doing what she's doing, and determined they'd be better if she took this stance. While I agree that I'd rather see a stronger denouncement of Israel, really, what I actually want is for Trump to lose this election, and any course of action that has the greatest chance of making that happen, I am in favor of.
