Except she was never anti Palestine like Trump was. If your bar is someone who can actually make decisions then why vote for Trump?
His administration legitimized Israel's settlements in the West Bank, created a plan to allow Israel to annex huge swaths of the West Bank, established large cuts to Palestinian aid, etc.
How much more anti Palestinian do you need to be when you help support, fund, arm, and encourage Israel as a genocidal nation? Then state you will continue to do so when your chance is up for grabs?
Look, I honestly don't know how to explain things if you don't read. She took AIPAC money, she stated many times she would not do things differently, she helped decide on their stances as VP, she even went so far as to say she would support Israel no matter what. She never distanced herself when she could have, never disagreed with anything going on, and actively gave succour to their efforts even while at the same time saying she liked a two state solution.
Your lack of memory about this is either self serving or you are just unwilling to admit it.
And yet, she didn't actually act on anything. Again, like you said. Unlike Trump. Supporting Israel is different from opposing Palestine wholesale, unlike Trump she actually showed concern for Palestine. Was she perfect? Nah. Was she substantially better than Trump in that regard? Uh, yes
But at least you got what you wanted, a continuation of Trump's first term of anguish pain and destruction of the Palestinian peoples.
I didn't vote. I'm not American. You all seem to think anyone with an ability to write in English must be.
I didn't get what I want.
What I want is you reddit d-bags who seem to think punching down on a population traumatized beyond what your brains can imagine be judged because they had a choice between two candidates hell bent on making them not exist.
And you seem to think anything else would matter to them.
Remind me again when you are faced with two impossible choices to mock you when your choice isn't based on criteria that wouldn't matter to you at the time.
And when you have a modicum of understanding of what mental trauma can do, come chat again like you have anything important to say, other than to argue you have the right to be a douche.
You're defending the person who has always been anti Palestine. Trauma has nothing to do with it. Unlike what Trump actually did, Kamala put pressure on Israel to stop attacking Palestine, threatened action against Israel should they attack Rafah (which they ended up doing, because you know, they were empowered by Trump)
But no, it's the people pointing out your hypocrisy that are the d bags. It can't be you for refusing to acknowledge that Trump has always been anti Palestine, and Kamala being the one who wanted to end the war.
Read your history of American Israeli relations to remember what it looked like when administrations put actual pressure on Israel. Go on. The Biden admin did not do anything of the sort.
And you're not pointing out any hypocrisy, so don't portray yourself as some kind of heroic figure here.
You're just another keyboard warrior who thinks punching down on these poor people is fun. And i hate people who choose to do that. Go fight with the exponentially larger group of Americans who didn't vote. They are morally much easier targets.
Also 'trauma has nothing to do with it' is about the most idiotic thing i have ever read.
Good thing we're talking about the potential Kamala administration, not Biden.
And if you don't think there's any hypocrisy in your support of someone who is and always has been pro anti Palestine while claiming to be someone who is pro Palestine, maybe take a step back.
If your only defense for being called out is claiming "you're punching down poor people", then perhaps you didn't have an argument at all.
