The one thing Americans should be proud of:

29% of Americans who voted for Biden in 2020 didn't vote for Harris in 2024 cited "ending Israel's violence in Gaza" as the reason for withholding their vote

The issue of Israeli genocide, surpassed the economy immigration healthcare & abortion in importance

I'm proud of all my friends that refused to back down when she refused to stop being evil, despite the fact a Trump win will deeply affect them personally. 💔 Politicians don't own your vote, they earn it!

People don't understand that this will go down in history as this country's one redeeming factor

Caitlin Johnson wrote something once, in defense of the american people.

She basically said that in pretty much all of the terrible atrocities/wars of the USA (Vietnam, Iraq, etc), that the American people had to lied into supporting them.

Most people, anywhere, aren't psychopaths.

Even the USA

I hope I’m wrong, but Trump is going to build casinos in the rubble of Gaza and laugh. That 29% chose annihilation just because it smiles.

That 29% is the only non racist soul of this country. They have to counter balance idiots like you who think voting for a president who committed genocide is saving democracy

The Democrats have nothing to be proud of

lexialex.bsky.social•41 days ago

Citizens who refused to vote because of the genocide of my people is what Americans should be proud of

Yes, but that means Trump won, and Trump has already intimated that he doesn't care what Israel does with Palestine as long as its not a full scale war. That's not good for Palestine.

There's a ceasefire because of the change over. That's good for as long as it lasts and can get anyone safer than they were yesterday.

lexialex.bsky.social•41 days ago

I'm glad you are concerned about us. I hope you protest whatever Trump does.

This evening I was talking with a British medic who has just come back from the West Bank. She told me about the lives of her Palestinian colleagues and how every day now is a struggle to get from morning to evening against interference from settlers and the IDF.
