You are on a sinking ship, there is a hole in your boat. There are people on the shore that need food. You want to help the people on the shore, but you need to plug the hole in your boat first so you don't sink and drown. Only then can you make it to shore to actually be able to potentially help them.
This is about us as voters, the power we have in this moment and how we choose to strategically use that power. There's no excusing going on here, or just makes you keep good to draw that lazy conclusion. There's an order of operations to actually impact the problem.
Your passion is misdirected and short sighted, what is the actual plan for Gaza/Palestinians if you get trump elected? trump will literally use the war powers act to get IBM to give Israel the same SW they gave the nazis to make the concentration camps slaughter "more efficiently" and found more Jewish refugees not yet captured by the Germans at that time through records searching.
You and folks with the save shallow mindset are looking at this like children.
So far it looks like you’ve convinced no one here, Very Serious and Sober Adult In the Room, but go on.
Bigger commentary on the folks here.
Your boat is sinking.
This is not true. But considering how nowadays, it’s not terribly uncommon for people to base reality solely on their own personal perception- I can see how it happens.
