      Frankly no. Oppression like this is worse than slaughter. There’s a reason Gazans are telling reporters and social media they are relieved when their loved ones die, because they’re literally starving and in pain and squalor.

        Certainly gives us more time to try to do something about it, yeah.

        The time to do something about it is during an election. Politicians couldnt care less what you think after they have your vote. They dont need your money.

          If there was a part of the election to do something about it that time was the Primaries. The primaries that only like 30M people vote in every election. Right now your choices are between death and more death but also closer to home.

              So you’re going to get Harris to change her stance by making sure she doesn’t become president? And because it was also stated that elections are the time to change them, you also imply she cannot change her mind after election?

              Thats some ass logic right there.

                Well she can change her stance on the weapons shipments any time she wants. She keeps losing support every day in the polls, so I suggest she stop digging and try something else. Or she is going to lose. Theres a lot of progressives who will vote for her if she stops the shipments and wont vote for her if she stays the course. This is her choice.

                You want to talk to someone about ass logic, talk to her.

                  Gaza is not a partisan issue. Making this the issue that decides your vote is stupid. People are going to die and the future will become a far worse place as a result of “progressives” not voting because of Gaza.
