I don't know what to think about people claiming to be LGBT+ allies who would even remotely entertain not voting Harris.. as the risk to the people they say they want to protect is domestic as well. This is a palestinians lose or everyone lose waaaayyyyy worse kinda deal .. so yeah.. apparently ideals don't matter that much.

I'm sorry but if you believe you can only be gay if brown people get genocided you're not gay and you just want to kill children.

If someone is willing to genocide anyone, then they'll come for you eventually too. Nazis didn't start their genocide with Jews.

Stick your strawman. Brown people dying is not a precondition.. I did not imply that at all. It's that more people will suffer and die if trump is not defeated. It's like saying Hitlers opponent was also bad.. yeah maybe.. but he's not advocating fascism.

Genocide and support for genocide is fascism. Harris is advocating for fascism.

If they're willing to fully fund the elimination of Palestinians, they wont stop when they are gone. You might not be next on the list, but you're on the list, we all are under a genocidal government.

I'm literally queer both in terms of sexuality and gender 💀💀 and am against genocide precisely bc of my principles (though I don't live in the US)

bc choosing to support the "lesser of two evils" since they won't target you domestically is lacking any and all backbone. "The dems can have a little genocide, as a treat. After all, they protect minorities in the 'civilised west' and that is the only place that counts" (not putting words in your mouth, just that this is what the position essentially boils down to)

I don't see the logic.

I think we can all agree that genocide is bad, right? And we can all agree that is happening in Palestine is genocide, correct? And therefore we would like to elect someone who would be more likely to stop the genocide.

The Democrats don't seem to want to stop... But neither do the republicans. I don't see the argument.

To my understanding, neither party has any plans to stop the genocide so what the point of contention? I understand that simply voting will do nothing to fix anything, but picking the lesser evil (which is still evil) will buy us more time. Point is, voting for Trump wouldn't be any better, nor voting for a 3rd party due to the flaws of the First Past The Post voting system.

If one should not vote for the Democrats, then who should we vote for? Trump? Seriously, what's your plan?

Exactly. What exactly does OP want us to do? What’s their plan of action? Because I see them posting a lot of anti-Harris content even though Trump is inarguably worse. To me that just suggests they want Harris to lose… and realistically, that means a Trump win. So where’s the third option here? What are OP’s motives with these posts? OP what are the enlightened anarchists supposed to do?

Trump said he will support Israel as well wich is probably his only based take.

Trump's a Nazi, so supporting a genocidal ethnostate is perfectly ideologically consistent for him.

I think ethnostates are bad though, and only a dipshit or a monster would support them.
