Yeah, time to filter lemmy.ml. ah well
Do you disagree with the idea that the "lesser evil" has been getting steadily more evil?
How are they moving in a positive trend?
Kamala has promised to keep supplying weapons for the Genocide. There's no denying it anymore.
So did Trump.
This part always seems to be forgotten every time this comes up. Voting for Trump won't suddenly stop it. He'll either send just as much or more.
Look at the text on the bottom left of the meme
Look at the last two sentences I wrote.
Look at the first reply
I did. Has nothing to do what I wrote. Pointing out Trump isn't some hero of Gaza isn't a "But Trump" anything.
So, go back and read what I wrote. Or would you like a "But Trump" comment?
Where did the post say vote for trump
US presidential elections are a zero sum gain.
Look at the meme, and see the connection between our and your original post. You are the one who posted both.
I did where's the Trump part
That would be the implied answer in the meme and the first post.
Wow you're right i just replayed the meme backwards and it said 'vote for trump the Genocide is Palestine is a Russian psyop'
With how you have been commenting here, I'm not surprised that what you read...
You don't have to post 3 paragraphs to justify Democrats committing Genocide.
Well, if you put it in the picture then it must be a good argument.

Just because one side is not 100% perfect doesn’t mean you have to support the side that is 100% bad. If you’re waiting for the perfect candidate who matches your beliefs on all point before voting you’ll never get to vote.
Why are there only two viable political parties?
It’s a result of the “first past the post” voting system used in the US. It naturally leads to a two party system.
A suit and tie.
Plenty of good people wear a suit and tie. Plenty of bad people wear something else.
They're all dressed as politicians.
Cope
Quote the weapons embargo in the paragraph
Got it so Democrat voters endorse sending weapons to israel for Genocide. Glad you are honest about it.
Claudia De La Cruz
You can write her in, can't you?
Increasing over time.
How do you suggest we go about doing that?
You didn't answer my question in any capacity. The Democrats don't want to get rid of FPTP because they would lose.
Strange you're not saying Democrats to the same thing.
How do you suggest we make a better world?
Look, I don't like Kamala either and I think continuing to supply weapons is awful, obviously. But she's the only realistic option at this point. You can still protest the genocide in Gaza AFTER the election (and I fully support you doing so, Hell I might even meet you at one), but look at it this way: if Kamala wins, you at least have a chance to make a change over there, but if Trump wins again, every Palestinian is as good as dead. Do I like either option? No! Do I think our elections are a good system? No! Am I going to vote for Kamala anyway? Yes! Because at this point, the choice is between shooting ourselves in the foot or in the temple
