    Its specifically because of my “morals” that im disgusted by people who recognizing trump would be no better for palestine but decide theyll “vote for Trump out of spite” so we have a genocide in gaza, and ukraine AND america because biden is calling for a ceasefire now instead of earlier.

    Im sorry ive had close friends deeply affected and even die due specifically to trumps actions and believe there is more than a single issue at hand, and im sorry that i think steps in the right direction (even if they arnt as significant as i would like, eg climate action, social issues, the ceasefire) should be met with at least some form of positivity rather than an increase in hatred an insults, but i guess i just dont have any “morals” huh?

      Do you know how Unions work?

      If a single person doesn’t show up to work they get fired.

      If the entire company doesn’t show up to work, they get more salary.

      We’re going to find out whether Biden wants to stop Genocide or fire Democracy.

        To use youre analogy, its like the the union workers got a pay increase, but it wasnt as much as they wanted, including me, but ive seen some people make some pretty wild demands that would out the company out of business for other reasons and a bunch just say they are going to strike no matter what because they didnt give them a raise sooner and are mad, with very little feedback of what specifically everyone wants

        If the company goes under the only other place to work is amazon, who have been doing a lot of hostile takeovers lately and have announced they will solve their financial issues by cutting worker pay, and safety standards. I already lost a leg last time i worked there and watched a bunch of coworkers get evicted due to not being able to afford rent, so thats not an option i can accept, ill kill myself if im forced to work there again, and id love to go work at one of the competing small businesses people say they are gonna start (vote 3rd party) but i have yet to see a business plan that lets them compete

        I could go on, but this analogy was already strained to begin with. My point is the ceasefire is the best thing ive seen biden do for gaza so far, and all of the comments in those threads are the most hate ive seen him recieve so far, a bunch of it not even related to gaza. We are about half a year out, and i have yet to see anything close to a viable alternative so i believe biden will lose, trump will win. Its like watching a countdown to my own suicide

          What ceasefire? Has anything been achieved?

          We said “The Genocide stops or no votes”. You can thank Biden for throwing the election because he wanted to cosplay as Hitler before dying.
