I'm curious to hear what the "withholding my vote because palestine" idiots have to say about this.
Edit: give me those sweet, sweet downvotes you butthurt idiots. I shall wear them like a badge of honor.
Most of them were going to vote Kamala if nothing changed anyways. This is the equivalent of a group of workers going on strike. They are doing it to improve the company and their own lives, but they were always intending on returning to work.
Pinning the democrats to a wall so to speak about Israel is smart, its caused a ton more attention and discussion, and rightfully so as many americans had no idea what the relationship between America, Israel, and Palestine was really like.
And now everyone can calm down as the largest group has ended its strike and returned to work (vote). Its not stupid to use what little power you might have to try to advocate for change.
A good portion of them are too young or Russian to vote anyway. And then there are just barely hiding the fact that they are Trump voters.
my guess: they'll ignore it, just like they ignore what the gazan and west bank people say who they want as president.
it's not about genocide or gaza for them.
it was never about genocide or gaza for them. just look at them scramble when you point out how their champion said nothing about what happened in ukraine and syria and those genocides (relevant since their champion was a known supporter of putin and assad).
it was only about disrupting the "corrupt duopoly" and having the ability to smugly declare their purity in not compromising their values on the ballot, the consequences of that vote which would affect all of us be damned.
