I didn’t say that. I said that at this point, months into this debacle, it’s obviously not persuasive to me. I am not willing to sell the lives of Palestinian children to make my life marginally more comfortable.
Those children will die regardless of who you vote for or if you don’t vote at all. It’s a horrific tragedy that is completely out of anyone who isn’t in power’s control. So instead of worrying about that, worry about what you CAN control - preventing fascists from gaining more power and making things even worse than they already are.
We can control our complicity. Politicians can be brought to heel. Saying we can’t do it is just another way of excusing ourselves from worrying about what our leadership is doing.

And what do you think Trump will do to help the Palestinian children? Please be specific.

No a tragedy is a plane crash. A tragedy is a tornado directly hitting the school gym everyone sheltered in.
This is a war crime, a massacre, an act so vile that civilized countries have agreed it should not be done, ever.
And we do not have to be complicit.
Nothing you said contradicts Samus.

I’d be willing to bet you couldn’t point to Palestine on a map this time last year.
I bet you don’t know who I am, what I went to college for, or where I was before college. Because you’re very wrong.
I’ll bet I know what you don’t know. And that’s where Palestine was on the map prior to October 7th.
