I hope Kamala doesn’t have the blind support of Israel Biden has, but it really looks like she won’t be.

So regardless of who wins the election, they’re both going to be ok with this

I get it, you want a functional democracy.

Thing is, seems this vote about you get to have a democracy at all.

Good luck and don’t beat up yourself about it.

When people say they want the only valid option to not support genocide:

Still vote for pro genocide anyways

Isn’t as effective as you think it may be

I’m voting for Harris (even tho she has zero chance in my state)

But comments like yours are making voters feel disenfranchised meaning they’re less likely to vote.

And the only reason I took the time to write that, is I think you’re genuinely trying to help Kamala, what you’re doing is just the opposite.

Something better would be:

The only chance to stop it is to vote Kamala and keep up pressure the next four years.

That would be productive.

That would help her retain voters on the left despite her many recent policy moves that are chasing them away.

You have no choice, so stop caring

Doesn’t work on progressives, they have a larger prefrontal cortex which is where empathy and critical thinking is. They literally can’t ignore it like conservatives who in comparison have a smaller prefrontal.cortex and larger amygdala.

You appeal to them thru fear and pressure, what you said would work on them not progressives.

Note:

If you really want sources for the prefrontal cortex/amygdala stuff I can find them.

The reason for literally every single one of your complaints is public opinion. If you want things to change, you need to change people’s minds. That takes time and effort and it’s incredibly frustrating. I’ve given up trying to persuade people that torturing animals in factory farms is bad. Don’t forget 99% of human history had institutionalized slavery and rape. Most people are hopelessly morally bankrupt, unimaginably stupid, and barely sentient. Still, if you want the world to change, you gotta persuade them. No other option. Getting mad at “democrats” or “republicans” makes no sense when they’re the embodiment of their voters’ hideous opinions.

Haimovich directed more than 160 shipments between at least March 2022 and May 2023 to companies in the Maldives and the United Arab Emirates, for ultimate delivery to Russia

This guy might be an Israeli national, but his weapons sale didn’t include Israel at all
