So Trump gets elected, the genocide gets 10x worse, the right allows Israel to completely demolish Palastine and take their land.

Kamala gets elected, genocide might continue for a while, but at least we have time and still have a democracy and the chance to vote in people who will condemn genocide.

There is an effectively zero chance of any third party candidate winning the election, so if you care so much about genocide, throwing your vote away to third party where you would have otherwise voted for Kamala is essentially taking away a vote from Kamala and giving it to Trump, supporting even further genocide.

Any questions?

Why would it get worse, materially, let alone 10 times? Harris has promised to never cease giving Israel bombs to "defend itself," what's Trump going to do to make it worse?

Kamala gets elected, genocide might continue for a while, but at least we have time and still have a democracy and the chance to vote in people who will condemn genocide.

Spoiler: there will not be that candidate. Next election in 4 years, if there are any Palestinians left, there will still be 2 Zionist candidates representing the DNC and GOP, and the anti-genocide candidates will be 3rd parties with little to no chance of winning.

The third parties have 0 chance of winning. So which is better? Kamala, who might actually listen to the public, or Trump, who won't listen and will do whatever he wants to Palestine?

Trump won't do whatever. He has said in the debate that he will let Israel finish the job. That's not ambiguous.
