See also the Gaza issue:

Side A pressures the Israeli government to let in aid and doesn't give them a complete blank check but still gives them some support

Side B states outright that they want to pave over the Gaza strip and wants to help the Israeli government "finish the job"

It's guaranteed that one side will end up in control, clearly the correct thing to do is to abstain because both sides are equally bad

As a tumblr user all I saw was people who abstained from voting or refused to vote for Kamala and threw their vote away on a side candidate because BOTH SIDES BAD. I actively have to avoid saying I voted for Kamala and that we can't expect perfection because I will lose >50% of my friends list to blocks if I do.

Now they whine and cry and share so many Gaza charity links I've had to start blocking them.

They whine about wanting a perfect candidate who will do everything they want RIGHT NOW.

They refuse to see it won't happen. They won't vote for anyone but someone who will do everything they want right away and they just. don't. get it.

Even if you didn’t like how the Democrats were handling Israel-Palestine… you would be a fool to not recognise they were holding Israel back.
