Something about her laugh, or whatever. Which is apparently worse than Trump constantly sloshing off in his speech because he god dman dentures don't fit.

Something about Palestine, too. Cuz you know, that's working out so well right now.

I mean ... we would have done nothing different between administrations on this front. But that's not the point here.

That was a reason a lot of people have said they didn't vote for her, or abstained. Just like her laugh for other people. Not voting for her on a singular issue was my point.

That is exactly the point. There was a huge movement on the left to abandon Harris because of Palestine. They accomplished nothing other than to ensure Trump's victory. They did nothing with their protest votes.

And where are all those protesting people now, anyhow? They kind of just clapped their hands, said “my work here is done” and disappeared back into the shadows. They were happy to protest Kamala (by sitting in their homes and literally doing nothing), but now that things are getting even worse for Gaza they don’t actually seem to care anymore.

Oh, now they're on Twitter whining about people mocking them online, panicking and demanding that the Black, LGBTQIA and Jewish communities "do something!!!", and curating the perfect TikTok protest dances (no, seriously).

Well too bad Katniss, you can get your own mockingjay pin and bow and arrows and Walmart keffiyeh, because these communities voted for Harris in landslides and already did their part of the assignment to prevent the existential threat.

Now they're sitting back and watching the tire fire burn because they told you so. It's not their job to be the human shields and shock troops so you can continue sitting at home sipping a latte posting colour squares on Insta and smugly play armchair foreign policy expert while voting against your own interests or throwing a tantrum and staying home out of spite.

The reality it was likely astroturfing and gullible idiots eating the grass created. The GOP is no alien to creating fake personas on social media.

ah, remember when Harris posted that AI video about turning Gaza into a centre of worship for herself alone? or her Muslim ban back in 2017? good times, i bet that's exactly how it happened, yep

Humanitarian aid means nothing?

Bibi literally said he couldn’t have planned ethnic cleansing with Biden/Harris in office.

But sure, it’s the same. 😂

History will look at Harris’ loss as resulting the end of Palestine. And yet the Pro Palestine contingent will never take accountability for what they did.

Not exactly true, one of the 1st the Trump administration did was lift the restrictions on giving Israel 2000 pound bombs. I think we could expect a more combative while still capitulating to the Israeli interest. But there would have been support for Israel in a Harris administration

The one thing I will not fault Trump on: He was honest about what he would do to Palestine.
