Who the fuck said I don't believe there's a genocide going on?
calling it the "Israel-Gaza crisis" implies equivalence. As somebody else notes, not using the word genocide is also a strong signal that you don't believe it's a genocide. Finally, you used "lol" when talking about a genocide. In short, all evidence in your message suggests that you do not take it seriously.
If the point of your comment isn't to minimize suffering and mock people for their political choice, then what is the point of your comment?
So the two realistic options are Trump and Harris. You do realize Netanyahu wants Trump to win, correct? You do realize Trump isn't going to do a damn thing except attempt to install himself as God Emperor of the US if he's elected while utterly ignoring all outside politics, yes? So by not voting for Kamala, that's what you're signalling you're ok with.
Harris has at least signaled she is willing to consider forcing Isreal to some sort of negotiation table. Although neither side is going to say anything particularly inflammatory ahead of the election because… AIPAC, who has literally thrown millions at any candidate that has spoken out against them pre-election.
Homey, she's vice president today. If she gave a fuck, we wouldn't be where we are.
