That doesn't answer my question. Specifically what candidate, besides Harris, stood a chance of beating Trump that would have been good for Palestine?

    How about you went to the streets before you got a duopoly of genocide apologists to become your only option? Oh no, but but but, my team was bEtTeR.

    But nooooo, you were fine with genocide as long as it didn't affect you, and the multiple wars abroad before that. And now, you guys have to pretend to protest the dismantling of your own nation. Seems very much like karma, doesn't it?

    So, well done. The system led to Trump, not the opinions on genocide in Palestine. US has a history of being fine with worse. If you can't see that and find blame someone else to blame, you're too far in your own ass to see it.

    Dude with this mindset no one could ever live a normal life. At any given moment in your life there is slavery, genocide, whatever going on. Any of which could be a reason to take to the streets in your mind. So since you're not in the streets about slavery going on in the world you're fine with it? You're not in the streets about sex trafficking are you, I guess you just don't care about sex trafficking and it's victims because it doesn't impact you. This is how you sound.

    But of course, you lecture the masses oh wise one. Tell us the error of our ways, how did we stray from the path only you can see?

    If your country is doing sex trafficking and slavery (the latter at least is true) then yes, that is something you should take to the streets for. Something happening and something being done with your tax dollars are two completely different things. Don't project your lack of moral principles and/or spine on other people.

    I don't even know half the horrible things the US is doing. And the EU is doing plenty of messed up stuff too. Same with Asia. So wait, every single person should be in the streets then? What country are you from? Why are you not in the streets?

    Why? You have the sum total of humanity's knowledge between your fingertips and you still can't be bothered to at least educate yourself? "I don't give a shit about other people and neither should you" is not the flex you think it is.

    So wait, every single person should be in the streets then?

    Literally yes. By the way, plenty of people in your own country are marching and organizing against for-profit prisons (aka slavery). As I said above, don't project your own lack of principles on others.

    Why are you not in the streets?

    Because I'll be imprisoned for years and likely tortured. How about you?

    Probably the same reason? Do you think no else stands to lose by sticking their head up?

    If they had that to worry about they'd have said so, not made a meaningless and disgusting appeal to normalcy.

    Keep gloating that your only policy was going to be enacted and that none of the rest of us had any meaningful choice.

    If harris had done the right thing, you would have voted for trump.

    If harris had said that she would stop selling weapons for genocide, you would have voted for trump.

    Again, what the actual fuck are you talking about?

    Your reading comprehension must be absolutely horrendous, because at no point did I say anything that would have remotely suggested that I would do such a thing.

    You're still carrying water for her against people whose major objection to her was her support for genocide.

    You don't have to do that. But people are saying that selling weapons for genocide is bad no matter who does it, and that must not stand.

    She's not running anymore. She lost. The election is over. Attempting to convince people who already voted for her that she was a better choice in response to people who are upset that they didn't get an anti-genocide candidate just makes it look like you're defending the policy people had a problem with.

    Because you are.
