Nope, I believe that, like Harris, he will continue to uphold bipartisan US foreign policy, and maintain the current flow of bombs to Israel.

Painting Harris as "Palestine's best hope for continued existence" is monstrous and downplays her already active support for continuing the genocide, it reads as you trying to pre-emptively absolve yourself of guilt for voting for her.

Where did I say that she was "Palenstine's best hope for continued existence"? I said nothing of the sort, so thanks for putting words in my mouth. The truth of the matter is that the US will always send Israel bombs, but one candidate will do it more than the other. Palestine is fucked either way, unfortunately.

Third parties will not win, Trump will not be any better for Palestine than Kamala, and Kamala at least has better domestic policy anyway. I don't feel guilty for voting for her when the other candidate literally wants me any my queer friends dead, along with Palestine. Sorry, not sorry.

Didn't realize you were a different person from the original commenter I was talking to. Speaking of, it's helpful for people to have profile pics for that reason.

How will one candidate do it more than the other? Is Trump going to build bombs himself? This is a bipartisan effort.

Correct, and Kamala will not be any better for Palestine than Trump, and pretending otherwise is monstrous.

Vote for whoever you want, just don't pretend your vote for Harris is helping Palestinians. The US is dedicated to genocide either way.

"I didn't realize I was talking to somebody else. But it shout fault for not being easily recognizable beyond the different name above your words."

I admitted a mistake, and offered a suggestion, I didn't cast fault. Touch grass.
