  • I chose to vote for Harris despite this because Trump would be no better on this, so effectively the issue wasn’t up for vote and I could only vote on the other issues that were different between them. But very bluntly, I don’t blame Arabs and Muslims for not voting for Harris. They have one of the strongest grievances one could possibly have (i.e. second only to attacks directly on them personally, in the U.S.), and the dismissiveness from Biden (and Harris) was downright insulting.

    A part of me does feel like Biden chose Israel over Americans. I don’t know if changing course on this would have changed the election, and I guess it’s impossible to truly know.



  • Indeed, you’ve spelled it out plainly: there is no vote option to end the U.S. funding of Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

    I can either make a vote that won’t end it, or I can make a vote that won’t end it (and may actually make it worse, as you alluded) and will also lead to significant negative consequences for many groups of people here.

    If there’s a single bone in your body that cares about the lives of your trans friends you will too.

    Not just trans, but homosexual, non-white, non-religious, women.
