Trump says Palestinians have ‘no alternative’ but to leave Gaza

The amount of hatred against phantom leftists that on the one hand lost the Dems the vote and on the other were too weak to have their demands considered is crazy.
No, these people didn't lose you the vote. They don't even exist in this ambivalent form. It was everyday citizens that heard Democrats push the same racist border talking points Trump spewed last election and went "Hm, if even the Dems say this is a problem, I'll vote the party that talked about how evil Migrants were for decades, the GOP". It's people tired of increasingly struggling to make ends meet and the Dems saying everything will stay the same, while Trump promised them change. We know that he just means destroying the last remnants of social security nets for poor people and everything that stands in the way for oligarchs making kaijulllian dollars. But people are stupid and desperate. Why can't the Democratic party be held to a higher standard than whatever this is?

"They told me something discouraging, so I gave up" is not the excuse you think it is.
But congratulations on deciding the solution is capitalism. Both very American of you.

I am not American and I don’t live in the US. I am Palestinian so I chose nothing. I just had the questionable luck to be born in a place where Zionists wanted to build a colony.
Poster said ask a Palestinian and here I am. You chose what you believed was right for you. But don’t use me to justify that.

Got it. You know what is best for the little Palestinians and you don't have to do any hard work, just vote.
Also, this is just a lie:
Not that it changes much, since US is the only country actually sending significant material support to Israel and diplomatically shields them from consequences.
I mean let's just start with Germany... https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/scholz-says-germany-will-supply-israel-with-weapons-defend-itself-2024-10-17/

Throwing money at a problem in order to solve it is peak capitalism, but do tell me how it fits in a non-capitalist system. This should be good.

Ah yes, sorry for not giving you the opportunity to brag. Go ahead, tell us about the hard work you did and the Palestinian friends you have.
I have to assume that is what is bothering you, considering you went from harshly criticizing someone for not voting to criticizing me for "just voting" in the span of two comments.

peak capitalism is extracting profit from others labor, like being a landlord.

Oh, we just want to focus on domestic genocides then?
Bet.
Why did Biden push to increase spending for grants to local PD?
Tou know the cops that routinely kill Black and brown folks here?
Oh yeah, let's not forget how indigenous folks here are being relo'd still, and kept in ghettos.
Or, how Biden never shut down concentration camps on our southern border.
You're upset now, only because now white people are possibly in danger. We get to feel a taste of what non-white people experience daily in the US.

Yeah, it's almost as if people claiming they vote or not vote as something that counts as effort and helping a situation is some virtue signalling bullshit. Congratulations on missing the entire fucking point.
And yes, I do go out of my way to talk to Palestinians. It really isn't hard to do. You just apparently think you know better than them what their needs and desires are, so you don't bother.

You clearly don't.

When did voters, or the Dems, actually do anything for brown and Black people in the US?
More cops doesn't count...

Huh. And all this time I thought capitalism was multifaceted and not so simple that you could sum it up in one sentence, which is why there are multi-volume works dedicated to it.
But you're the economist here.

"Other people didn't care, so I didn't either" is not the robust self-defense you think it is.
