Lol Gaza is going to be straight annihilated under Trump and you'll still somehow feel righteous.

Gaza was straight up annihilated under Biden and no I don't feel righteous because it was still my country supporting it. I am proud to not have personally voted for a candidate that feels righteous supporting those doing the enslaving and genocide though. Your argument that people should vote for the plantation owner cause the other one will own more slaves isn't appealing and clearly wasn't a winning strategy. If you were concerned about slaves then you would have rejected the idea of owning plantations altogether.

One life spared would be harm mitigation and therefor justification. Gaza is not a moral boolean variable

You act like Kamala's position wasn't a choice she made. Do you think she was under some sort of threat of death if she didn't support genocide?

[–] IzzyJ@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Death, no. Just losing all that campaign funding

[–] timewarp@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

So you're saying that had she not supported genocide, that she wouldn't have got enough funding to run her campaign? How is that any better? Are you suggesting that Israel has so much money that a candidate can't win unless they support whatever they do? Hasn't the left been alleging that Israel having massive influence in American politics and media due to money was an antisemtic trope? How does Bernie win while still trying to stop weapon shipments to Israel?
