Oh sure, you're welcome to criticize the Democrats if you like, including for facilitating genocide. I'm just saying that it's weird to keep doing it after the election while swearing that you speak on behalf of the Palestinians, and that's why you care so much, when you've been totally silent about the Palestinians except insofar as they can be used to criticize Democrats. To me it sounds like your focus is Democrats.

I shit on Republicans literally all the time for their hatred, exclusionary and shockingly ignorant world views and complete deference to the rich.

Like do you want me to put it in my profile? I harbor no patience for dangerous rightwing bigots, Trump, JD or otherwise.

I said nothing about Republicans. I said you've been silent about Palestinians (except when they can be used to criticize Democrats). Nothing about Republicans.

My answer to this is something we can very much agree on, I am a USian and everything is rapidly falling apart here. The firehose of shit has turned up which isn't a surprise to you or me...

I still very much care about the plight of the Palestinian people and my countries simultaneous direct complicity and utter denial of it having direct complicity (though arguably Trump is to stupid and bigoted to even bother to deny it).

I am not going anywhere, this isn't some "fad".

I came of age in terms of forming my politics during the Iraq War, I am still angry US war criminals from that era never received justice.

Believe me when I say people like me are not going to just drop this, ever, period.
