I dont have them on hand, but I've seen a few polls in swing states where 5 or so percent more undecided voters would be more likely to vote for Harris if she promised an arms embargo, as opposed to less likely.

Yes, yes you can. Our shit political system means you have to pick one of 2 options, almost every anti-genocide person I have met is voting for her. This is because they aren't idiots, and understand that Trump is far worse, and a non-voter is a Trump voters. You act like you have to love a candidate to vote for them, and that you aren't allowed to want a candidate to be better.

wow really, i never would have guessed/s

Ok, I will stop saying anything else, as you seem to only be able to reply to a single point at once. How do you disagree with my assertion that most pro-Palestinian protestors are still voting for Harris, and are, in fact, encouraging others to.

[-] Womdat10@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 months ago

I have never told anyone not to vote, if you recall, my point for this entire comment thread has been that most pro-Palestinians are still going to vote for Harris, it is true that polls can be biases, but seeing as you haven't provided any sources, I'm going to continue to believe in the ones I provided. I'm pretty sure primaries haven't happened yet, and unless your talking about ones from last election, I don't see what you're talking about. Please give me a source to support your views, and please respond to my point, and not a straw man.

It is true that the majority of Americans are more favorable of Israel than Palestine, however, according to a recent poll of 1,000 Americans, by YouGov, petitioned by the CEPR, 52% of Americans support an arms embargo on Israel. In another poll by YouGov of 3 swing states, it is shown that in Pennsylvania 34% of respondents said they would be more likely to vote for Harris, compared to 7% who said they'd be less likely to if she vowed to stop supplying weapons to Israel. Similarly, in Arizona it was 35% to 5%, and in Georgia, it was 39% to 5%.

Once again, failing to respond to my point, by saying something unrelated. I happen to be a student, that means I can't type out a whole response to several points while in a class that I need to focus on. You seem to forget that people have lives outside of the internet.

Dude, fuck off, if all your going to do is insult me I'm not going to continue talking to you. I happen to be using a phone keyboard, making it extremely easy to misspell something.

If you're a real person, then you have serious reading comprehension issues you are once again saying that I said something I didn't, I said nothing about not voting, I infact said the opposite. The rest of your assertions I don't have time to respond to currently, and I'm not going to waste that time if you're an AI as I expect.

So, first off, what exactly is the most important thing people buy? It's food, and it'd water. So free food is the next best thing after universal basic income, and is in itself a form of universal income. Second, you say that it's not rich people and corporations that put us into this situation, and I just want to know where you got this idea, because it's not poor people who established a capitalist society, or artificially inflated the price of basic needs, causing people to give up less necessary items because they couldn't afford both housing and food. It's also not poor people who decided that the minimum wage shouldn't be livable. All of those things where done by rich people who were born into the right families and didn't work for a single day in their lives. So tell me again how this is poor people's fault?
