    Just because it’s been happening for a while doesn’t make it right.

    Just because you care about it now doesn’t suddenly make it more important than every concern, including preventing it from getting far worse.

      I cared the whole time.

      Honestly as someone who isn’t American, this is more important to me than economic policy or whatever. I want Biden to win, Trump winning would be awful for everyone, basically worldwide. But most of all I want the kids to stop dying. I really don’t think this is so unreasonable.

      Trump won’t be convinced. Biden might be. And this “less important” issue could still cost him swing states. I think maybe not supporting a genocide could be a vote winner.

        If you’re going around defending third party votes then you are doing a pretty horrifically bad job of helping Palestinians

          Well if you’re going around making up what people are saying then you’re doing a pretty horrifically bad job of having a conversation.

          Where did I defend third party votes? NOWHERE

              No worries. Mistakes happen. I won’t be a prick about it.

              But not anti Biden. Anti genocide. I can see why you might get those two confused, lol
