And when trump is elected I’m sure they won’t do everything in their power to arm Israel to the teeth with horrific weapons to use on those kids /s

Right? Could you imagine if we started sending them weapons and cash to further their genocide?

Yeah totally. And everyone will feel super satisfied for really sticking it to Biden for not providing enough Palestinian aid or pushing Israel hard enough in their opinion, while only holding back some weapons from Israel, and not doing a pointless veto of congressionally allocated funding that would be immediately over ridden by congress. And then when Trump is elected later this year.... Let's see here....

Oh yeah, withdrawing all aid from Palestine (like he did before), helping Israel to "finish the job" in the Gaza strip, and then strike some corrupt deals with Netanyahu and his son in law to divide up all this sweet recently vacated beach front property. And yes, this is the same son in law he put in charge of Israel Palestine peace "negotiations" during his term.

By all means vote for the most progressive politicians you can. But you have to grapple with the current reality of a first past the post voting system, and not voting at all is even more stupid.

I hate all this accelerationist nonsense. Let's sit out this election and have an authoritarian facist takeover! Surely this will help push the country to the left like we want.
