What is your other option?

Yes we send assets to Israel. No, it is not as simple as cutting them off (see: world history since 1948).

Harris and Walz have both publicly called for a ceasefire. Donald Trump has public stated that he thinks Israel should receive even more weapons to “finish the job”. This is not an election for President of Israel, we do not have unilateral decision making on their actions, but anyone who can do a modicum of research cannot be naive enough to think that both parties are equal in their projected outcomes.

Do you remember the last time we had a Democratic trifecta? (House/Senate/Presidency) it was the 111th Congress under Obama’s first term and it resulted in one of the most productive legislation periods we’ve had- Affordable Care Act, American Recovery Act, Dodd-Frank Consumer protection act, Fair Pay Act, etc.

When Dems have the actual votes to do things, they get things done. Are they perfect? Far from it- welcome to the pragmatic real world. But if you have an entire party whose only platform is “undo whatever the Dems do and also discriminate” then it’s pretty fucking hard to have actual reforms. If you don’t vote, or you throw away your vote on actual Russian asset Jill Stein or some other farce, then your opinion on the issues frankly isn’t worth our collective time.

It’s a huge fucking issue. YOU GET TWO OPTIONS FOR PRESIDENT. That’s the way our system is set up and that’s the way it’s going to continue to work, realize that we’ll never get a viable 3rd party reform option.

In this election you can choose between a democrat who is slightly globally centrist and fairly socially progressive, or you can choose a literal fascist whose party has published their plan to oppress every group that isn’t straight white males. By the way, that group has also come out and said they are fine with Israel stepping up their genocidal efforts.

If you’re not voting or undecided, I’m sorry but you can fuck right off.

I understand wanting more staunch rhetoric from the Dems towards Gaza, I do. However, you have to understand how one of your two options is infinitely better equipped to bring about a ceasefire… to say nothing of the impact towards women’s health issues, LGBT+ rights, rights and treatment of POC and immigrants, global stability, etc.

It must be nice to be sheltered enough to be a single issue voter in this election.
