I'd like to think they're all just Russian trolls but increasingly, I think some people are just selfish or dumb.

the lesser evil camp refuses to pressure the harris campaign and the harris campaign refuses to self reflect on their republican lite gamble; but the gaza voters should give up their only bargaining chip and vote for them anyways?
Yes. That's how the two party system works. Dems are still miles better than Republicans on the issue, and thus don't need to improve. It sucks, but that's the hand that's been dealt I don't see any better strategy to help the people of Gaza. If you see one, feel free to share.
we've been holding our nose and voting for democrats this entire time and now our choices has descended into choosing between an active genocider and someone who wishes that they were.
each time we've descended into a madness into this country; there's been another crazier level that we squabble about, but end up it doing anyways because democrats are the lesser evil; i don't want to know what's crazier than a genocide.
if you're not american or western european; you too should be wondering what's crazier than genocide for the world's only super power to consider and enact because it will happen if we can't change our political trajectory.
Do you have a better idea, though?
there are plenty of ideas and many of them have been enacted by other countries; the problem is that both the democrats and republicans are effective at suppressing them to maintain their duopoly.
A better idea about what should be done now. Everybody knows that things could be better.
ideas that we can do now are also shared and just as suppressed as any of the others.
the one i'm going to do is voting third party. i live in a state that will never vote for a republican so a third party vote has no bearing on cheeto hitler's re-election. the american voting system is setup so that, even if it voted for trump, it still wouldn't matter in my state.
