    They were not equally pro genocide. Kamala said that she wanted a cease fire, and Trump wanted Israel to finish the job. These are not the same, one is clearly better.

      She wanted a ceasefire, but keep sending them arms unconditionally.

      Regardless, lite genocide is still genocide.

        So might as well let the worst one win then? If there’s going to be a genocide, might as well be a good one? Gross.

          No matter who won, Palestinians are being genocide. There is no “worse one” here. Genocide is genocide.

            Right, so a genocide that kills 1 million Palestinians is the same as a genocide that kills 2 million Palestinians, for example?

            Just because two things share a characteristic, doesn’t make them the same. One genocide can absolutely be worse than another. You are completely lacking nuance and reason.

              Tell the families who are dead and asked to vote FOR genocide that they lack nuance when they refuse to support either of the people who want their people genocide.

              At what point does genocide cross the line for you?

                What does it mean to cross the line? Does it mean that you just give up and stop trying to use your vote to push the world toward the better future than the worse future? Then never.

                If I can choose between a better world or a worse world, I’ll choose the better world every time. I won’t sit on my hands while the fascists choose the worst one, and it’s despicable that you did.
