For those who don’t know, the “end to the war” would require Palestinians to surrender their means of resistance and accept the occupation and apartheid of the Israeli regime. Kamala Harris does not support an end to the genocide that isn’t on Israel’s terms.
harris literally said out loud on live television that she couldn't think of something she would have done differently from the deeply unpopular president that voters were screaming at for years not to run again
i need the people who respond with "so you didn't vote at all" or "so you're a republican" when they hear the lamentations of someone who recognizes the presidential election as the repeated performance it is to practice critical thinking skills. not that i think they will
the brief moment i'm on twitter i see mutuals retweeting things pushing harris and entirely failing to address/completely ignoring the fact that she's been the number 2 in an administration that's been actively enabling genocide and has stated she intends to keep doing so. okay
Thread:
In 1844 both major parties ran slave owners for President.
The Whigs claimed to be the lesser of two evils and demanded abolitionists vote for them.
The same arguments leveled against anti-slavery voters then are being recycled against opponents of genocide today.
it’s intellectually dishonest to point to the same person/groups over & over & say “look, palestinians are telling you to vote for kamala” while ignoring the vast majority of palestinians, both on the ground & in diaspora, who have said kamala & trump are 2 sides of the same coin
I cannot relate to any of you acting like this election is anything other than a performance. We live in a fascist country and there are two fascists on the ballot. Whoever wins, our conditions here will continue to worsen. Genocide will be allowed to continue unabated.
call me a single issue voter for this or whatever but it's hardly a single issue for me. it informs me as to how she's willing to treat everyone else including me: entirely expendable. if enabling genocide isn't your red line then i don't think you have one
