    you are completely ignoring Trump’s track record vis a vis Israel and Palestine. He has been much more fanatical in his support of Israel than any other president, even other republican presidents. For example:

    • moved the American embassy to Jerusalem
    • has never once uttered the words “cease fire”, only called for Israel’s “victory”
    • has never lamented any Palestinian deaths at all
    • reversed US’s position on Israeli settlements in Palestine (which Biden has again reversed to the original position in accordance with international law)

      Give me an answer other than “Trump is worse”. Of course he is.

      This is about how Harris could be better. She could be pushing for sanctions on Israel. She could be saying she’ll stop supplying the genocide. She could acknowledge that the genocide is a genocide.

      She does none of these things because she doesn’t care.

      Yes, vote for her (I will be), but acknowledge that the lesser of two evils is still evil.

        firstly, your comment above literally started with “Seems like the genocide is already accelerating, so this is also a false choice. Either way it will be more.” Now you say “of course he is worse” as if we’re all supposed to know you believe that. plenty of people on Lemmy don’t.

        Secondly, when you only criticize one side just because you think the other side is too far gone, you are making the discussion biased against Harris.
