Thousands marched on the Democratic National Convention Wednesday night. The group planned to travel to Park 578 near the United Center, but they were turned away by Chicago police and funneled back to Union Park.
I understand I’ll get downvoted for this but Harris said herself, as did Biden this week at the DNC that the protesters have a point, and that Harris wants a 2-state solution, ceasefire, hostages returned. Donald Trump wants Bibi to hold off and kill the ceasefire, to “finish the job”.
Harris is the best route to ensuring that Palestine continues to receive US based aid as well as support for the end of the war.
It is NEVER about getting EVERYTHING or NOTHING. If you set yourself on all or nothing, you will almost always end up with nothing.
I’m voting Harris because I believe she is the best chance Palestine has right now.
Our entire government has failed to respond to the challenge of standing up to Israel and has even provided the tools for them to continue their horrific campaign against the Palestinian people. We are all complicit in what has happened and history will not be kind to us.
I also believe that Trump would be objectively worse.
That’s honestly unfair as fuck to say “we are all complicit” as Americans, like maybe look at the globe. This was created and allowed to exist for a lot of reasons. It’s a monstrosity. But don’t let these fucks trick you into believing you should shoulder this like some white guilt nonsense
Apparently dissent on Lemmy is marked as “genocide” and censored. Between this and all Israel news outlets being censored, it’s pretty clear this is just a pro-terrorism platform. Goodbye.
And many of these Palestine protester groups are on a team of their own, they are looking for an ‘all or nothing solution’ and anything else is against the team so burn it all down (many interviewed talk of destroying the whole system). Interesting how it’s okay when it supports your interest, huh?
Politics has become a team sport. They only care about themselves and if their team “wins”.
I want Harris to win but I also care deeply about what’s happening to the Palestinian people. It’s awful.

“I’m voting for Trump because I want Israel to finish off the terrorists in Gaza.”
There are two problems with this:

https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/social-media/israel-posts-video-saying-are-no-innocent-civilians-gaza-rcna157111
So, yeah, backing Trump’s statement that Israel needs to “get it over with fast”? That’s advocating genocide.
