Elections are the only way the average American can hope to stop the flow of bombs

I understand, and I wish we could just halt some of the actions of those in power here in America, but that is not a realistic ask.

Also, you should care. Because there is a major difference between the prior genociders and the current genociders in power. The Trump administration dehumanizes the Palestinians, so they have zero ethical qualms about allowing the genocide to continue. In fact, they want to speed it up so that they can put a “ended the conflict between Israel and Palestine” trophy up on their proverbial shelf.

At least the Biden/Harris administration viewed the Palestinians as human beings still and were wrestling with the ethical violation. Now, I wish they did better. With a president Harris, there would at least been some hope that she would eventually put Palestinians lives ahead of geopolitical goals. With a Trump administration, there is miniscule hope that they will ever side with the Palestinians.

Bruv we want the government to stop sending bombs! The citizens don’t have control over the government, not anymore. The only thing we have in the system is a rigged voting platform, and a lot of people are trying to do the best we can with that.
