    In other words, op is proud and open about their willingness to sacrifice Palestinian lives in order to preserve their own comfort and safety under the status quo.

    Anyone who can look at this meme and not only see one option as acceptable, but be proud of this depiction of how “right” they are (in their own minds) to pick the “lesser” (but still) evil, is the embodiment of “scratch a liberal, a fascist bleeds”.

    All to avoid having to do any more than the bare fucking minimum that is voting in this theatre, and getting their pat on the back for being brave antifascists (lmmfao, only in their own minds, of course).

      Don’t worry - the Terminally Online Leftists will change their tune from “It won’t change the election” to “If Palestine gets genocided by Israel, it’s only fair minorities in the US are genocided too”.

        No amount of whataboutism in the world will cancel out the fact that both parties are actively supporting genocide, no matter how much you wish it did to make yourself feel better about your poor choices ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

            This is one of the most utterly disgusting things I have ever read in my entire life. You are repulsive. You should be in prison for saying these things. You are living proof that true evil is possible for humans.

            Do not bring queer people and women into your calls for genocide. You do not speak for us and have no right to invoke us in open calls for the mass slaughter of, among everyone else, queer people and women and children.

      I get what you mean, but I think the point behind this image is not to say that doing what you call the “bare minimum” is enough, but to try and get more people to actually do that bare minimum.
