    America has a two party system, and one of those parties is going to win.

    Harris is predictable and most importantly, sane.

    Trump is unpredictable and most importantly, he doesn’t even know what he is going to do.

    With this in mind it seems American voters who do care about the plight of Palestinians must vote for the lesser of two evils. If you’re getting something evil you better choose the least evil right?

    Unless you refuse to play the game, but nothing changes anyway.

    Disclaimer: Not American, supports Palestine.

        I’m not German. I’m British.

        I’m sorry that I can’t just go and overrule my government on their foreign policy, how lame of me.

        Seriously, what you want me to do bro? You know nothing of my life and the actions I take in support of Palestine.

            I live in reality mate.

            Trump or Harris are going to win. Trump will be worse for Palestine than Harris, it’s that simple.

            If I tie you to a chair and tell you I’m either going to remove one of your eyes, both of your eyes, and if you don’t choose then I’ll remove both of them. I am sure you will reluctantly choose to have one of your eyes removed.

                I you talking hypothetically, like me, or are you threatening to do that?

                If it’s the former, there’s isn’t a lot I could do about it and I would take up arms against Israel.

                If you’re threatening me, then come to Manchester and you can try realise your dreams.

                Glossing over your aggressive way of communicating and silly insults.

                Would you like to counter my opinion? Or just claim no and leave it there.

                Which part do you not agree with? Trump or Harris are going to win?

                One is more unstable than the other and says things on a whim?

                    It was a hypothetical, not a threat. Jeez.

                    Your actions would get a worse genocider in power, so who is furthering the genocide. Abstaining means Trump will likely win as his voters will not abstain.

                    To be abundantly clear, the game is rigged and the system is fucked, but whilst we have this system you should do what you can to make sure the lesser of two evils prevail. Or you can just bury your head in the sand ignore reality and then enjoy Trump.

            Yeah, let’s just “throw Trump in jail”! Duh! Why didn’t anybody else think of that?! You’re so smart and enlightened! Tell me, who should Americans vote for that would satisfy your gargantuan intelligence? Keep in mind that it’s either Harris or Trump (anyone else is a vote for Trump). Use your massive intellect to give us the solution so our frail minds don’t support genocide!

            I would fucking love to throw that man in prison for one of his dozens of crimes, but I also recognize that I don’t have the power to do that. I do have some small amount of power over whether or not he goes into the fucking white house.
