What year is? Every year we are pushed further right. If genocide isn't a red line for you, then what is?
It's definitely a "red line", but I work in a field that requires me to think about things long-term. To me, the genocide shit is bad and I am 100% behind Bibi and his administration being tried and hung for their atrocities. However, I also know it can get a whole lot worse for Palestinians, and the world was a whole, if anyone but a Democrat wins in November.
Sure, we keep sliding to the right. But at least with Harris in office, we stand a chance of reversing a further slide. Without, we are sure to continue the slide at an even faster rate.
Look past the shortsightedness of those that seek to distract you and try to see the bigger picture. We can't do anything about the shit going on now if we don't have a future.
