It’s a choice between her and Trump and guaranteed Trump will be worse for most of the Middle East.

It’s a choice between her and Trump and guaranteed Trump will be worse for everyone, most especially, the Middle East.

Even after Democratic party victory, people (including dems voters) will have to come out to fight against genocidal policies. Pressuring govt. to end genocidal policies will be the true victory of people.

Well, to be fair- far leftists, socialists, progressives- whatever you want to call them also disappear after every election. They’re notoriously hands off unless an election is happening.

Need evidence? Show me an instance where any of these people did anything at all to make the change they demand aside from disrupt and protest an election.

When some interesting person says "I am speaking" to shun protestors, when mobs try to hide palestine protestors by their banners, when mob shouts "Four more years" to suppress voice of protestors, when individuals close their ears show their tongue when names of dead Palestinian children are announced outside rally.

  • These people (of your favourite party) have normalised the genocide and will backstab after election.

And Trump, Bibi’s buddy that implemented the Muslim Ban, who told Bibi to “do what you have to do,” and who famously kept poking Iran, is basically guaranteed to be Genocide Pro Max.

Meme is about people putting pressure on future authority to change the genocidal policies. I hope Dems voters don't sit-back and relax after election and ignore the genocide, if their favourite party wins this election.

  • People should put pressure regardless of which party wins this election.

Trump won’t listen. He doubles down.

The same can be said for the untold masses of “socialists” crying that “all dems are pro-genocide!” while most of them didn’t even know where Palestine was a year ago.

Genocidal policies are made from the position of power. Socialist third parties are nowhere close to reaching that position and People who can get to that position are reluctant to change those policies and that's why public pressure is required.

So, your original post is about the voters, or the politicians? Because I’m talking about the voters, which is what you made your post out to be.

Third party will never see the light of day because the people that see it for what it is would never in their life support it. Those that support it, only pay attention to it every three and a half years or so just like the candidates do with political policy.

They do nothing, and they have no roadmap to any effective policy at all.

When this changes, I’d be willing to bet that any free thinking democrat would be willing to listen. But as the leftists LOVE to say-

They haven’t earned our votes. They don’t just get to demand we vote for them and magically get our votes. It’s THEIR job to earn votes.

And they haven’t.
