    Oh yes, I’m very biased. Biased against genocide. I hate anyone who does it, or defends people doing it.

    This may blow your mind, but there are people who have actual principles in this world. Like feel strongly enough about genocide to just point at someone planning to perform genocide and say, “wow, that’s bad” with no equivocation. You do not want to do that.

    What Trump will or won’t do doesn’t change anything. Kamala has not publicly rescinded her islamophobic statements, recanted her support for an ethnostate, or made any tangible criticism of Israel. Anyone who votes for her is doing so with full knowledge that she will participate in genocide. And you aren’t even denying it.

      Oh I agree that some people are willing to stand up to their principals. Unfortunately the US is a two-party system, and nobody in either of those parties appear to have a spine against Israel. In any other reality I would be all for shaming Harris for being pretty much the same thing, but in our particular hellscape I have to at least give her credit for saying something that nobody else (of those two parties) running for President has done. It’s a very small step, but it’s still a step in the right direction. Hopefully we get a chance to allow her to move the line even further.
