It doesn't matter. The Israeli/Palestinian conflict isn't even in the top 10 major threats to our country.

You can be unhappy about it, but this election is literally deciding whether the US will be a fascist, theocracic dictatorship.

I agree with your stance, but it's a hell of a hard pill to swallow when both action and inaction directly support the continued financing of a genocide.

Vote for the lesser evil now, but make up for it by holding them to account to the fullest of your ability once they're in.

No politician is going to please everyone. All we can do is keep choosing the less bad option until there's finally a good option.

Ranked choice voting would be nice, but for that to ever be an option we need the left to overpower the right.
