I don’t get this logic. If you were thinking about voting for Harris at all in the first place, voting for a third party is equivalent to voting for Trump. Does anyone actually think Trump is better for Palestine (or Muslims anywhere, or anything at all) than a Democrat?

Genocide isn’t sane.
Both are genocidal, letting the DNC get away with genocide solidifies their position. That’s the logic, that the DNC can get away with literal genocide as long as they aren’t the GOP, and in the eyes of Liberals, that’s correct.
