Who’s ignoring it? You’re talking to people who are actually trying to do something about it.

People voting for the party currently conducting a genocide are not in fact trying to do something about it. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Reductive, useless lies that ignore nuance and reality. Why am I not surprised? Seems like you've shut down so you don't have to think too hard about the reality of your existence so I think we're done for the day. Enjoy your couch. I'm sure we'll talk again in a few months. Cheers!

What's actually reductive is telling people that the only option they have is to vote for one of the genocidal parties. Why am I not surprised? Seems like you’ve shut down so you don’t have to think too hard about the reality of your existence so I think we’re done for the day. Enjoy your couch. I’m sure we’ll talk again in a few months. Cheers!
