I could attend every Free Palestine protest, boycott every Israel-affiliated company, volunteer at human-rights organizations, raise money for Palestinian relief, write a book about the genocide of the Palestinian people at the hands of Israel, and cast a vote for Harris rather than Trump, and you would still say I support genocide.

Any list that contains X contains X. You're giving material support to a political faction that's carrying out genocide. The political analogy isn't voting for Hindenburg, it's reelecting Hitler in 1944.

What I want you to do is recognize that there are no solutions within the existing political order and that is not an excuse.
