More than 100 Arizona Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, and progressive Democrats and community leaders have signed a letter making the case for those reluctant to support Kamala Harris against Donald Trump.

“We know that many in our communities are resistant to vote for Kamala Harris because of the Biden administration’s complicity in the genocide,” the letter, published Thursday night, reads.

“Some of us have lost many family members in Gaza and Lebanon. We respect those who feel they simply can’t vote for a member of the administration that sent the bombs that may have killed their loved ones,” the letter continued. “As we consider the full situation carefully, however, we conclude that voting for Kamala Harris is the best option for the Palestinian cause and all of our communities.”

    If you would like to discuss this further, make a new thread and ping me. I’m not sure why I need to say this 3 times.

    Nah, my vote is you stay right here, not go slinking of to some safe space. You opened your gob, take your lumps, you disingenuous muppet.

        You sure are focused on genocide. So, you’ll call out China’s treatment of the Uyghurs, yes? The Russian genocide being committed in Ukraine right now? No? Not those genocides?

        Run along, obvious muckraker.

          Neither of those genocides and your reference to them cheapens the term and distracts from your actual knowing support for genocide. Instead of reaching for the quick excuse to stop thinking, do some introspection on why you are okay with normalizing genocide.

          Out of respect, I would like to venter Palestinians and the genocide they are facing, but I will discuss what you’d like about China and Russia in another thread. Feel free to make one and link it here.
