@benroyce @matt5sean3 Words aren't going to stop Israel. But. The candidate with the most chance of going beyond words was Harris. Any voter who had the continued existence of Palestine as their prime objective voted Democrat.
Any voter who had the survival of the Palestinian people in mind knew that an election wasn't going to change that, but they did know that they could choose to not be behind the person finishing the job. So, they got back on the protest line.
Is it a rational response? No, except for the getting back to more direct protests part, but neither is what Israel is doing?

I still can't understand how blame for the victory of the orange rapist is always laid exclusively at the feet of individuals disaffected by a genocide. Harris could have distanced herself a bit from Pres. Biden as he perpetuated an Israeli conducted genocide. The ICC may be toothless, but it does have moral authority, and Biden & Harris's full support of an indicted war criminal alienated many progressives. I voted for him, but understand those who did not
@benroyce @JeffreySmith @matt5sean3 There’s plenty of blame to go around.
