Actually, I just read one of your other comments, and you know what’s extra bullshit? The fact that you’re telling people you’re not even American, but you’re still trying to justify why people shouldn’t have voted for Harris.
Under previous administrations, Palestinians in the United States were able to claim refugee status for their relatives and get them out of Gaza.
Now, that’s gone.
The news cycle were able to report on everything going on in Gaza, and have people paying attention to the actual atrocities happening (never mind what’s happening in Sudan and Congo).
Now, Trump and Elon dominate the news cycle.
So many people were willing to donate to Gofundme’s for the people in Gaza to help them cross the border to Jordan/Egypt, or have enough money to at least buy food/shelter/medical treatment and survive until the ceasefire.
Now, people are losing their jobs or in such economic uncertainty DUE TO THE DIRECT ACTIONS OF THE TRUMP ADMIN there is no extra money for mutual aid.
The fact that your idealogical purity stance FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY has destroyed so much of the mutual aid mechanism surrounding Gaza and you don’t even realize it is the most tragic part. I do digital infrastructure work pro bono for an organization that helps Doctors Without Borders, and guess what? The employees there have been furloughed due to the USAID freeze.
So yeah, Kamala and DonElon…totally the same fucking thing, right?
you’re still trying to justify why people shouldn’t have voted for Harris
Oh, that’s rich, please do tell where I justified people not voting for Kamala. I have said several times in this thread alone that Trump is worse for Americans than Kamala would have been. I’ll also add now that it’s worse for Europe and Ukraine as well, something I’ve also said in the past. If you go look through my Lemmy history - go ahead, I dare you to prove I’m lying - I never once told people not to vote for Kamala. You should be ashamed either to lie so boldly, or that a foreigner who speaks English as a second language has a better understanding of it than you.
Not to mention, America isn’t isolated. What happens in America affects me too, for better or worse, so I have just as much a right to voice my opinion on American events and politics. If you disagree with that, then I expect you to remain quiet in regard to all other world events. Do you do that?
The news cycle were able to report on everything going on in Gaza
Multiple journalists were killed in Gaza with no consequences. And my news sources still report on Gaza anyway, so I’m not sure what you are referring to. If you’re only looking at what is being posted on social media then perhaps you are correct, but I’d argue that is a problem in and of itself.

This is hands down the best response I’ve received on this issue, I will acknowledge that, however you talk as if Americans weren’t already struggling before, and as if the rest of the world can’t still donate and help.
The fact that your idealogical purity stance FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY
Are you Israeli? Are you Palestinian? If not, then why are you not following your own advice? I point back to my second paragraph, in regard to this.

In regard to Palestine and Israel? Pretty much. Everything else? Obviously not, which is what I’ve repeated about 200 times fold.

What the american government does has repercussion all over the world.
The news cycle has been dominated by a bunch of people in bed with the government for a long time. The genocide is gaza is already as bad as you would expect a genocide to be but media and governments are making really hard for you to to see the pictures of mutilated kids.

Now respond to the rest of my comment. You didn’t even read it, did you.
