    Both Trump and Harris were pro Israel. Why are third party voters getting gaslighted for Trump’s actions. I didn’t vote for him. And Harris would have been more of the same. Worse/better doesn’t matter. Both backed Israel and sending weapons.

      Living in a world without nuance would mean experiencing life in a stark, black-and-white manner. Every situation, person, and idea is categorized as purely good or bad, leaving no room for complexity, shades of meaning, or understanding of different perspectives; A world where everything is simplified to extremes, leading to misinterpretations and a difficulty navigating more complex situations and interpersonal relationships. If worse/better doesn’t matter, there can be no difference between killing 1,000 people or killing 100,000 people.

      Both of them are pro-Israel, but only one of them is sending Israel 2,000 lbs bombs. How can you not see that that is flatly worse?

        That’s true.

        And only one of them has overseen the wholesale destruction of Gaza by originally supplying thousands of 2,000 lb bombs plus BILLIONS of DOLLARS of other weapons that were used in the genocide.

        And only one has negotiated a ceasefire.

        Which one of those two is flatly worse?

            Pop quiz: how many democrats joined republicans to censure Rashida Tlaib?

            22!

            How many people joined in Tlaib’s protest as Netanyahu was given standing ovation after standing ovation while addressing congress?

            ZERO

            Democrats really got your back.

              The vote was 234-188

              Omfg, 22 Democrats!! Let’s not talk about the 212 Republicans they joined, right? Let’s make sure those Republicans stay in office and grow stronger. Let’s not think about the 188 democrats who voted not to censure her.

              What a clever strategy. You see things oh so clearly.

                They needlessly voted to censure her for her harmless free speech about another country.

                Where do their allegiances lie?

                The image that has stuck with me the most is Rashida Tlaib sitting in congress with a sign protesting the war criminal genociding her people while every other colleague in the room gave him standing ovation after standing ovation.

                There is only one ally in congress.

                Yes, fortunately.

                I don’t know how anyone can be inspired by the democrats who are weak in power and weak out of power.

                You see what Trump is doing with executive orders? They (democrats) all said it was coming if he won the 2020 election and again when he ran for this one.

                So why didn’t the democrats do it first with policies to help people as soon as Biden went into office? Why not sign universal healthcare and childcare and fight them with their own devices?

                This administration is just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks, but they are throwing so much shit the wall is disappearing.

                Why didn’t the democrats put any safeguards in while they were in power?

                Where is Harris now? She earned a lot of votes she should be out there fighting for those people.

                Where are the democrats? And don’t tell me any stories about Tio Bernie because he’s just there to squash movements.

                Btw you are focusing on the wrong number.

                Rashida Tlaib sat there protesting while the person exterminating her people was given a standing ovation. Not one person joined her in the room

                What you are failing to understand is there are no allies in congress except for her.
