Is directly funding genocide a good reason not to vote for a candidate?Idk this seems like a bit of an unfair framing. Many folks made the educated guess that we’d still fund genocide under trump anyway, something that turned out to be absolutely true. It’s understandable that some folks couldn’t stomach the Kamala ticket but I don’t think that means that it was bad calculus to vote for her given the alternative
Could you elaborate on why you did? As horrendous as Biden was for Gaza I just personally had zero reason to think It’d be any better under trump and many reasons to think It’d be worse. On top of that trump would obviously be worse on essentially every other issue I care about and we’re seeing the aftermath of that now. How were you weighing those options tho?
