MODERATORS
If they ignore you and you keep voting for them, what's their motivation to take you seriously? The only leverage the average voter has is their vote. If they know that they can count on your vote no matter what they do, then they don't have to listen to you.
You're right, we should vote for Trump who put the embassy in Israel and wants Israel to finish up the genocide quickly. 4d chess move, there can't be a genocide if the people are genocided quickly.
That's not how voting works, and it's exactly what republicans want you to think.
That's literally exactly how voting works. You can't put an asterisk on your vote. An exuberant, wholehearted vote counts exactly the same as one where you feel dirty for a week after.
