Ah yes, opposing genocide is a radical far-left position. Of course.
Sadly in American politics it is, if you support anti-imperialism or the end of capitalism tyranny that makes you a radical leftist (according to the shit libs). I say we wear that as a bage of honor, I am a proud radical leftist.

Western settler-colonialism is not “a 1,000 year conflict.” It’s a modern imperialist project.

Yeah I'm perfectly fine with not being on the same side as people openly embracing Dick Cheney and weird people can't figure out how being active in genocide is bad.
"I'm not going to support Dick Cheney, so I'm going to help the guy even Dick Cheney thinks takes things too far."
And disingenuous people "can't figure out" how not stopping the current weapons sales is still better than giving Israel even more and better weapons and telling them to wipe the place out.

This is extremely misleading. Fuck Trump 10000 times and kamala is the only sane choice, but stop trying to paint over reality to try and make her look like she's not just a lesser evil.
She didn't just "not promise to solve 1000 year conflict" (which the genocide has been going on for the last 75 years),
she did promise to continue funding genocide with American taxpayer dollars. (Of which the US has been giving and average of $5 billion in tax dollars and weapons to Isreal per year for the last 75 years, since they first invaded Palestine).
We are voting for her because she is the lesser evil. We don't have to be happy about it or stop criticizing her on her bad policies.
Basically: Vote for Harris, but also fuck her for vowing to continue funding genocide. Trump would also keep funding genocide, and he'd also destroy what's left of the west, on top of every other obvious reason he should never be in power again (and never should have been).
OP consistently makes posts that only divide the Dem base.
Considering they started out with AI posts lying about early voting, I guess it's an improvement?

Nobody expects Kamala to solve it. They do expect her to stop supporting genocide.

Another post that makes me further double down on voting 3rd party. It is because of this mentality that not enough people vote 3rd party to make a difference. Also, I refuse to reward genocide.
I would also like to add Trump being worse isn't a good argument because this administration has let israel do all it wants and given them every weapon and funding.
