Biden is currently in power. Protests should rightly target him. But isn’t it odd that the vote protest doesn’t target Trump?
And again, there are lots of things that can be done beyond votes to help Palestinians. Money and donations are just one thing.
Palestine has been a disaster for years, with a slow burn genocide. Most people and most countries ignored it. So, while o think its good that people care now, many are using it as an excuse to torment distrust rather than genuine concern.
Withholding votes from a note resonavke candidate to increase cha ces for an ectrmeist deranged candidate is .ore likely to lead to more suffering and more genocides. So the action doesn’t match the stated intent.
Well, it does target Trump, too. None of these people say they are going to vote for Trump, either. So by the same logic, they are helping Biden win, too.
Besides, it makes perfect sense you hear Biden’s name more than Trump’s. It’s not as much of a threat, because there’s nothing Trump can do right now to get those votes, because he has no power. Pressuring him wouldn’t help Palestinians right now, before the genocide and ethnic cleansing is complete. With Biden it would. Plus, Trump is clearly trying to get the Zionist vote, leaving no one to get the non-Zionist votes. Biden has the most potential to be that candidate if he is as push-able to the left as people told me was he during the 2020 election. And he has been surprisingly malleable in some matters, so I think it’s possible. They just have to believe those votes can be lost, instead of going towards the Democratic Party because they have nowhere else to go and thus they deserve to get them even without doing anything for those constituents.
They’re not causing distrust, they’re pushing for change. I think the problem is the people on the other side. If everyone hand wringing worried about Biden’s chances vs Trump instead pressured Biden, too, instead of trying to do some moral arithmetic in their head, I guarantee Biden would feel forced to change tactics and go harder on Israel, and we could get actual help for those poor people faster. Then we could all vote for Biden without feeling bad about it.
The single biggest thing Israel has going for it is their support from the US, including their veto in the security council, help with weapons and money, the iron dome, shared technology, they’re trying to make bills making it illegal to criticize Israel or protest universities against our First Amendment, they’re warring in Yemen for this cause, and now they’re trying to interfere in the ICC case and investigation process, too. So while I do agree there are other ways to help, such as the BDS movement, spreading the word of Israel’s history, there are streamers who have volunteered to help refugees and stuff, I still think that getting the US to stop supporting Israel politically would be the biggest way to help Palestinians. And that requires change from the top.
Plus, it’s just insane another sovereign nation gets that much unconditional support from our politicians, while we don’t even have universal health care lol.
It doesn’t affect both candidates equally. Trumoncourts the vindictive and racist vote. They don’t have a problem with genocide.
They are not saying I won’t vote for trump. They are saying o will not vote for Biden. Biden is losing support over the issue. Trump is not.
When you provide misinformation and false equivalence, you undermine your argument, similar to an agitator.
Biden is not a good candidate, nor was he in 2020. He’s objectively worse now, bit so is Trump, his competition. The time to protest was during primaries and find a different candidate. Some did. It didn’t work unfortunately. Now he should get full voter support. Anyone who claims to care about genocide should care about human rights in general.
Boycotting a vote to allow an objectively worse candidate in is, just like Biden, tacit acceptance for crimes they themselves did not commit. If you hold Biden responsible for the actions of Israel, then by the same logic, those who choose not to vote Biden can and should be held responsible for Trunks actions.
