Oh they're really gonna love how Trump handles Arabs

It's like the trolley problem, except instead of the other track having fewer people, it has more, and it just loops back around to run over the people on the first track anyway. We should have sent the trolley on a completely different route decades ago.

It's THEIR Fault for not voting for the Two Candidates Killing Their Families and instead hoping a Trump Presidency would be a Quicker fall so we can Rebuild in a way that Their Families don't die!

Both parties are beholden to Israel and the power of AIPAC

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 16 points 3 days ago

Other way around. Both parties support Israel because Israel helps secure the Petro-Dollar, by which the US dominates the Global South with predatory IMF loans.

Angry with the Biden administration – and, by extension, Kamala Harris – for its support for Israel, Arab Americans may be willing to overlook Trump’s history of closeness with Israel’s hard-right leaders.

So, these individuals could be described as the common clay of the new West?
