President Joe Biden’s support for the Israeli military offensive in Gaza mixed with student anger over police crackdowns on anti-war campus protests are complicating the work of Democratic youth groups trying to engage classmates and other Generation Z voters ahead of this year’s election.
Republicans are overwhelmingly Zionists who would never criticize a Democrat for supporting Israel. If anything, they would impeach Biden for not sending Israel enough bombs and guns to use to murder innocent Gazans
So you don’t want Biden, but you don’t want Trump either, but you can’t have it both ways. No matter if you turn out to vote or not, you are getting one of those two choices. That’s a fact. We’re stuck in the Prisoner’s Dilemma Election, and it’s time to decide if we’re going to play the game to win or not.
There’s far more at stake this year than just the fate of Gaza, but shortsightedness is going to kill us.
Saying that there’s far more at stake than an ongoing genocide minimizes genocide.
My solution is to protest as loudly as possible and donate my time, money, and energy to stopping genocide, and not waste anyone’s time by trying to inhumanly minimize genocide.
More than one thing can be true at the same time. Stopping the genocide in Gaza is important. Stopping the rise of fascism in America is important. Stopping the erosion of civil liberties in America is important. Minimizing genocide would be me saying “It’s not that bad”, which I don’t believe is true. It is that bad. I just disagree with the apparent strategy that the nascent leftists have embraced, which is to cut off the nose to spite the face, a strategy that will ultimately end up with a continuation of the status quo at best and risks a rapid acceleration of all of the problems I mentioned above in the worst case scenario.
By all means, protest and donate your money and time to the effort. That seems to be making an impact to some degree.
None of that is going to stop by voting for Biden, lol. We are seeing a rise in fascism, an erosion of civil liberties, and genocide, under Biden. Yes, Trump would probably be worse on some of these aspects, or even all, but we are already well beyond what should be unacceptable.
Protesting and donating is doing far more for gazans than sucking up to Biden and minimizing his atrocities ever will, and I say that as someone that will likely still vote for him.

Gee, sounds like we should really do everything we can do keep these Republicans out of office then.
Sure. Which leaves us with democrats. Who are the ones currently arming and funding a genocide

Holy shit, genocide minimizing.
Scratch a liberal…
How is this minimizing genocide? I’ve acknowledged that it’s a serious problem.
What’s your solution?
