I think this is a pretty silly comic. It’s a massive whataboutism.

At the beginning of the war I’d always hear “But what about hamas!??1! Do you condemn hamas!?!1”

Then I saw “But what about trump!!1! Obviously you need to support biden while he funds this genocide because the other option is worse!!1!”

Now, I’m seeing “But what about climate change!?!?!? What about the corrupt courts ??!?!?!? But what about reproductive rights ?!?!?”

The comic, to me, shows that there's a lot more at stake than Gaza this election season. Protest voting because Biden hasn't done more will make all those issues, especially Gaza, insurmountably worse.

Netanyahu isn't angling for a Trump presidency because of personal preference.

The division on the left over Palestine has got to be the dumbest fucking shit I've ever seen. Talk about cutting your nose off to spite your face.

I'm sure if it wasn't Palestine they would have picked some other hill to die on

Don't worry, single issue voters are very rare. They're being loud right now on Lemmy, but I honestly don't see them anywhere else. I'm pretty sure at least a third are paid actors too, but I can't prove that.

Everyone shut the fuck up and vote Biden. We'll figure everything else out later.

The alternative is we do not get a later. Ever again.
