    Refusing to help because you’re standing on an imaginary moral high ground

    How do you want me to help?

      Assuming you are actually an American citizen: you vote for Kamala Harris.

        If Kamala Harris wins, and innocent people still die from state terrorism, what next?

          Then we hold our politicians accountable? Because we still can? Because we still have a functioning Republic, and not a fucking Autocracy?

          You’ve done the dark calculus and made a strategic vote, its doesn’t mean you endorse everything Kamala does.

          The reality is Kamala will likely be more amenable to pressure here than the Trump. At worst you’ve protected the small number of palestinian refugees to the US from further persecution. At best you create a lasting problem for Netanyahu by electing people who aren’t cheerleading the genocide.

        I can’t, that would be illegal.
