Allow me to spell it out for you:
"Why do you care about the genocide of Palestinians NOW vs the last several decades of Israel's apartheid state? Why do you care about the genocide of Palestinians but not of trans people in America? Why do you care about the genocide of Palestinians but not of Ukrainians?"
This shouldn't be hard to figure out. People chose this issue now because they can afford to ignore the consequences of a Trump (or even just GOP) administration. They don't have to deal with what happens and that fact allows them to prioritize one genocide over another.
