It seems to me that Republicans and the Christian Nationalists they are in bed with are going to be immovably pro-Israel. How do we prevent our government from participating in this genocide as these new politicians take power?

    I feel even worse since I did vote for Harris, although live in a red ass state so it doesn’t amount to much (hopefully I’ll move out next year).

      I definitely recommend getting out while you can. Move somewhere that affords you more rights and has a stronger economy.

        I can’t afford to move to another country though (neither can most Americans), so I can only move to a state that isn’t red. As much as I’ll still have to deal with President Trump, at least a non-Republican state would try to mitigate/fight back in ways

        I’m planning to move to Puerto Rico, which unlike every other state/territory in the country, its party system does not align with the national one (similar to Quebec in Canada), but more politicians there are nationally affiliated with Democrats than with Republicans, and from what I know, while Trump enjoys support among a chunk of stateside Puerto Ricans much like other Hispanics, Trump isn’t very popular there considering he neglected them after Hurricane Maria and tried to sell it, as well as the more recent “island of garbage” shenanigans
