Every Palestinian father is my father. Every Palestinian mother is my mother. Every sibling is my sibling, cousin is my cousin.
I won't vote for genocide. I won't. I'd rather kill myself. Just listening to the daily horrors coming from the Strip make me want to die. There's already catastrophe! So many children starving or getting limbs amputated or being sniped in the head by IOF.
I've listened to so many people beg for their lives. I've seen so many bodies.
I hate this country I hate this country I hate this country I HATE THIS COUNTRY
Fascism is here. Genocide is here. The catastrophe can not be stopped because THE UNITED STATES IS THE CATASTROPHE.
And it will be worse if Trump becomes president. You can help stop that by voting. If you don't vote, you aren't resisting this coming to pass.
Unless Trump fucks it up and causes Israel to lose. Unless Trump triggers a popular backlash like he did in 2020 and causes another historical protest movement. Unless Democrats become a real opposition party again and refuse to help him do genocide.
We can't actually predict what will happen, so I'm just voting with my conscience instead of trying to play 5D chess with my vote.
