$hill Stein voters will never admit they were duped. All those protests centered on Biden or Harris but NEVER on Republicans. Also it’s Congress that establishes foreign aid, but whatever. It must have felt so good to be entertained by your own anger.

The genocide happened during Biden. I expect as much protests once Trump takes power

Congress establishes foreign aid, not the president. And there won’t be much protesting about Gaza anymore because the purpose of the protests has already proved successful, to disenfranchise Democrats for a Trump win.

And who constitute the Congress? Oh yeah it's Republicans and Democrats which both voted for the 10 years deal with Israel. Even if the president can't do anything in action, he can still condemn and criticize the Congress decision.

Bingo. These morons only care during election cycles

What does pointing your anger at and blaming other voters accomplish? They did the right thing. Republicans want minorities dead and Democrats are holding them hostage. I'm glad Trump won. Now white Americans can feel a fraction of the suffering Palestinians are going through. That'll make them care. That'll make them fight.

If any civilian should be blamed, it's you for accepting this lesser evil bullshit over and over and over again to the point that got the world here. If the only thing that comes out of your mouth is shit, then don't talk.

Yeah, entertained by your own anger and the hubris to never be wrong… Gaza is fucked now, and apparently the West Bank, too. The lesser of two evils is all there is in this world, and you sit there celebrating that evil won (at the behest of quite a few minorities).

So how would you describe Gaza during the past 6 months? Everything in rubbles, hospitals barely functioning or not at all. People starving to death while the US still supplies the bomb to murder them more actively...

Especially the past month that Israel is just straight up ethnically cleansing northern Gaza withour any pretense left, murdering American citizens, attacking UN troops...

There is absolutely no indication that Harris would have turned things around. Because the points to turn things around kept passing and passing and she made a point instead to declare here steadfast support for Israel.

The (infuriating, I absolutely agree) choice was “Gaza in rubble”, or “Gaza AND the West Bank AND wherever else Israel feels like annexing (probably a good chunk of Lebanon) in rubble, and the possibility of open war with Iran”.

Glad you got what you thought you wanted, I guess.

Blah blah blah Democrats… Tell us how awesome things will be in Gaza under Trump and a Republican controlled Congress…

There is no lesser of two evil in supporting a genocide
