So it’s okay for a Palestinian-American citizen to not vote for Biden due to moral reservations over what Biden’s signing off on in Gaza, but a white citizen doing the same in solidarity with the Palestinian-Americans, and Palestinians generally, is bad? This says to me, he doesn’t actually think it’s acceptable for Palestinian-Americans to not vote for Biden, but won’t outright say it because he knows it’ll undermine lib virtue signaling.
Arguably, voting the way your Palestinian-American friend tells you to is the best thing to do. It both admits they know more about the situation than you, and shows that you value their opinion. This is doubly true for people who can't find Palestine on a map.
