updated as of yesterday (July 21): based on a statistical model developed by a prestigious medical journal called The Lancet, Israel has killed roughly 434,800 people in Gaza since the country’s military started to attack the territory on 8 October 2023. That’s 20.7% of Gaza’s entire pre-conflict population dead. Over half are women and children.

There are ~3 congress members out of 535 total who oppose this genocide. Thats ~0.56%, despite the general population of the US being over half opposing the genocide.

The US isn't a democracy, its a capitalist dictatorship, and meaningful change can't come through its own system.
