So in summary because 70,000 Palestinians died... you think the lives of the million people sheltering in Rafah are forfeit? ...Because once they started the genocide they might as all be dead anyways? What the fuck mate. Do you need someone to tell you that's fucked up? That is fucked up.
And when did I say appeal to conservatives? Read mine again. You suggested plunging the worst off of America into suffering would magically cure them of their centrist tendencies. Reality is, where there is instability and inequality people grasp on to shitty xenophobic rhetoric to justify holding on to anything. I'm begging you. Read some history. Show me an example where dismantling the existing power structure in a time of instability worked. Not in the past 40 years. In the past 1,000.
What's your plan? I'm listening.
edit:
In November there are two outcomes. This is reality. One has a higher death count. Showing up and voting blue is the least one can do. There is no virtue that costs innocent lives.
