In exchange for the resettling of Palestinians, the administration would potentially release to Libya billions of dollars of funds that the U.S. froze more than a decade ago, those three people said.

    As I recall, it was important to punish the Biden administration for their role in assisting Israel.

    As it turns out, there are severe consequences to ignoring absolutely every warning that Trump would be worse.

      Although not voting was the wrong move, It’s important to hold the democrats accountable imo. They essentially lost the election because they considered genocide more important then their consituents.

      The fact is that Gazas fate would have been the same under both party. The way forward is to demand change from the democratic party to avoid such scenarios. Blaming voters implies it wasnt the democrats at fault in the first place for pushing apathy and genocide as their main platform. Even worse, it implies genocide somehow shouldnt be a voting issue.

        The hell it would have. To say that the fate of Gaza would have been the same is absolute horseshit.

        Democrats lost the election because a bunch of shitheel Muricans decided to stay home.

        It’s our fault and fuck y’all for trying to blame Democrats for not inspiring people to protect marginalized groups.

        Dems suck but so does the general population that refuses to take any responsibility for their part in making this happen.

        If you need a god damn politician to inspire you to think beyond yourself, you fuckin suck and are trash.

        Over it.

        Edit: I’m not responding to any more of you kids who are trying to justify sitting on your asses. None of you have helped save a single Palestinian life.

        You’re just spoiled Americunts who think you’re superheroes for doing nothing

          You’re rewriting history. People stayed home because they refused to vote for genocide, and that’s what Democrats offered unapologetically. You don’t get to blame the voter for not choosing between genocide or genocide plus, you’re not morally superior for voting for Harris.

            Yes I do. And yes I am.

            You said “I don’t care what the trolley does because this test isn’t moral”

            The rest of us actually made a choice.

            Get fucked. You helped put my trans son in danger and I don’t fuck with ANY of you fucks cosplaying as revolutionaries.

            You’re children.

              Quit using your trans son as an excuse, you supported a pro-genocide party because you were willing to trade the lives of innocent palestinians to secure your own security and comfort.

                Quit assuming literally everyone who voted blue loooooves genocide.

                I’m sorry you don’t have a sense of nuance in your life. Must be easy having a black and white existence.

                Get fucked, kid.

                  Quit assuming literally everyone who voted blue loooooves genocide.

                  When people stop saying you’re a fool for being a “single issue voter” against genocide and that Harris had to support genocide to win, I will.
