They will tell you that this result was inevitable and to look at the positive side of things (what ever this may be). Which is easy to do or say since they are not Palestinians
Which means their protest votes were meaningless. So it's a weird excuse that they're making.
No, their protest votes were not meaningless
They actively put trump in the whitehouse.
The American electoral system gives a voter the choice of potentially improving things (Dem) or actively making things worse (Rep). Given FPTP and the heavy use of propaganda, all other options (spoiling, abstaining, third party voting) equate to a republican vote, there is no other reality.
If an American did not vote Democrat in the election that just passed, they voted for complete ethnic cleansing of Gaza and the gutting of human rights in the USA—they didn't even try to hide what they were going to do this time. There is zero excuse.
Sorry, to clarify, I mean they were meaningless in terms of doing anything about stopping any genocide.
And now we can add more genocide in the U.S. to what is going on in Palestine.
