    I don’t know what to think about people claiming to be LGBT+ allies who would even remotely entertain not voting Harris… as the risk to the people they say they want to protect is domestic as well. This is a palestinians lose or everyone lose waaaayyyyy worse kinda deal … so yeah… apparently ideals don’t matter that much.

      I’m sorry but if you believe you can only be gay if brown people get genocided you’re not gay and you just want to kill children.

      If someone is willing to genocide anyone, then they’ll come for you eventually too. Nazis didn’t start their genocide with Jews.

        Stick your strawman. Brown people dying is not a precondition… I did not imply that at all. It’s that more people will suffer and die if trump is not defeated. It’s like saying Hitlers opponent was also bad… yeah maybe… but he’s not advocating fascism.

          Genocide and support for genocide is fascism. Harris is advocating for fascism.

          If they’re willing to fully fund the elimination of Palestinians, they wont stop when they are gone. You might not be next on the list, but you’re on the list, we all are under a genocidal government.

      I’m literally queer both in terms of sexuality and gender 💀💀 and am against genocide precisely bc of my principles (though I don’t live in the US)

      bc choosing to support the “lesser of two evils” since they won’t target you domestically is lacking any and all backbone. “The dems can have a little genocide, as a treat. After all, they protect minorities in the ‘civilised west’ and that is the only place that counts” (not putting words in your mouth, just that this is what the position essentially boils down to)
