Ya exactly. Where the fuck have yall been? I'm not trying to be pedantic or insulting but we that actually cares have been fighting for a long time to actually help! And yes they're are things outside of our control but we should never fucking stop trying to stop the train. You (those that haven't done anything to in your personal life to oppose fucking genicide outside of commenting and posting) are the reason why Palestinian and Arab Americans will stay home on election day. We need their vote! So get involved! Regardless of how the election ends we need to come together as a unified community and not individuals that act as if the Palestinians are already dead regardless of our collective actions! I'm guessing there are enough more marginalized demographics between you (not you specifically) and the next set of binary track decisions. If they (the rich and powerful) can do it to the Palestinian people they'll do it to you. And when they do come for you I pray others don't wait until a week before elections when they start posting train track memes as that's a point that should be made.
Get involved. Show communities that are currently on the chopping block you'll never stop trying to save their lives regardless as how close the train is. Get involved! Voting is the absolute least you can do, but you can do more! This post and comment won't sway a fucking election but us unifying and help those in need as much as possible will!
I'm done. Yall be acting like I'm the one being crazy when I'm saying no one has to be on the tracks of more keyboard warriors actually did something for others. Get involved!

For sure. We should do better so we're not in this predicament.
But unfortunately, we are, and there are people on the tracks. Right now. And we have a decision to make (and "not playing" is one of those choices, and it doesn't absolve you of blame).
