    Trump is literally doing something different than Biden. He literally wants Palestine cleared of Palestinians. Biden never even approached saying something like that.

    No one is claiming Biden or Harris would be good for Palestine. This is far, far worse.

    Or is this is one of these “what are you going to believe, me or your own eyes” things?

      The something different is, trump is not providing lip service and expediting what is already being done. It was gonna happen either way. If you’re kill them torturing with false promises seems just as cruel. Biden just sent another 8billion in arms at the beginning of this month. I mean c’mon

        Biden and the democrats supported a two state solution. Trump is going give the West Bank and Gaza to Israel.

            Trump is about to delete Gaza and the West Bank off of the world map. Biden was far from perfect but verbally was never in support of that.

            The more I engage with “protest voters” the more I wonder if, for whatever reason, they are actually accelerationists at heart. Which is ethically dubious as their action (or lack thereof) has accelerated a genocide.

                Dude…. Just take the mask off and be done with it. It’s not like everyone doesn’t already know.

                  I’m vehemently against aiding genocide. Period. Biden was complicit and we protested. Now trump is complicit and we still need to and continue to protest.

                    Suit yourself. I gave you an off-ramp, but I can’t force you to take it. Just know that it’ll be there in the future should you need it.

                As Trump has shown he will do. Above and beyond anything Biden has said or done.

                  trump has a lot of aid to provide to get there. I’m sure he will get there eventually. If only there was someone who could have done something sooner…hell it could have had an impact on voters, if not at least lessen the damage. But I suppose it’s better to not learn anything here and complain about people who find supporting genocide inexcusable.

                  It’s ok though, you can come out and protest with us still. We’d like to have you
