    Do you think I’m happy that Trump won or something? Good to see that the fake concern is gone now as Americans blame the very same people they are bombing for their own willingness to sacrifice them for the what they perceive to be the greater good.

    I’m not American. My family is at risk of being bombed by your country. The party you’ve avoided holding to account due to fear of a Trump victory is the one facilitating the bombing. It should have never gotten to this point but every time someone like you would say “but Trump is worse” to justify supporting the Democratic party NO MATTER WHAT it emboldened them to make the non-permissible permissible.






  • Into Lebanese (some consider it Syrian, doesn’t change the dynamic) occupied territory before and after Oct 7th. Gradual escalation (with 80% of those attacks coming from Israeli side) expanded the scale of the northern/southern front to what we see today. Israel has killed 2 orders of magnitude more civilians than Hezballah has and has sought escalation at every stage.

    Before Oct 7th, they would exchange fire in occupied Lebanese land and tensions would rise then fizzle out about once a month.












  • Not voting for a candidate who is tacitly supporting a genocide on that basis is not “doing bad things” no matter how much bad faith spin you try to add. The candidate has to earn the vote and that applies to non-voters too. Some people care about certain issues enough to abstain from voting on that basis and others vote strategically because its not a team sport. You just want validation for your own voting decision by implying those abstaining from voting are directly or indirectly responsible for your candidate’s opponent winning which they are not. If Harris wins or loses it will be based on her and her party’s policy and campaign decisions.
