Because you now did it to yourself.

    Are you seriously unable to imagine anything worse than whats happening there right now? Read a fucking history book.

    I can’t even believe an adult person is trying to make this argument. Please tell me that you’re a child.

      And one more comment where you give me nothing concrete. Every reply I get like this and which fails to give concrete examples just reinforce my point.

        Do you want me to list how things can and will get much worse? Will you finally shut the fuck up?

        Israel decides to “annex” the West Bank. The settlers who are forcing Palestinians out of their family homes will have the backing of the IDF/US military. The people who are displaced will be executed.

        US troops sent to Israel to aid the IDF in their genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza, and then onward as Israel pushes their invasion force further into Lebanon and other Middle Eastern nations, provoking a much larger global conflict.

        US gives Israel approval to use tactical nukes in that conflict. US continues to provide arms for this extended campaign.

        Israel decides to use chemical weapons to clear out populated areas, because at this point there’s no point in pretending to care about civilian casualties.

        Netanyahu has the IDF go door to door executing Palestinian women and children, and then run over their corpses with bulldozers (again).

        Stateside: Trump administration rounds up every Palestinian and deports them to Israel. Most of them will never be seen again.

        Trump administration rounds up any person who might be a supporter of Palestine and imprisons and/or executes them.

        Trump administration rounds up all Arabs (including the ones who were born here), and deports them to an active battlefield.

        I’m going to stop here because I’d rather not ruin my day more than it’s already been ruined.

        If you’re gonna crow on and on about genocide, at least have a basic historic understanding of how these things always escalate. It’s not just an on or off thing.

          Some of what you said is relevant, but none of it has to do with Palestinians. That’s my fucking point. I said a million times Trump is worse, but for Palestinians it makes no difference.

          Israel decides to “annex” the West Bank. The settlers who are forcing Palestinians out of their family homes will have the backing of the IDF/US military. The people who are displaced will be executed.

          They are already working towards that, they’ve been annexing the west bank for a long while, and they don’t need US troops for it.

          This is from 2020.

          This is from July 2023.

          Here’s an entire wiki page about all they’ve been doing since 1967.

          US troops sent to Israel to aid the IDF in their genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza

          The genocide is already happening. And again, whether US soldiers or just the IDF are involved is irrelevant for the people being killed, it only matters for the Americans being drafted.

          Israel decides to use chemical weapons to clear out populated areas, because at this point there’s no point in pretending to care about civilian casualties.

          They already don’t care, they’ve killed aid workers, journalists, and countless children. They’ve raped and tortured prisoners.

          Netanyahu has the IDF go door to door executing Palestinian women and children, and then run over their corpses with bulldozers (again)

          Exactly, “again”. Do I need to say more?

          And everything after that is about what Trump will do to people in America, about which we agree on, and I’ve already pointed out several times is not my point. My point is, for the last time, Trump is not materially worse for the people living in Palestine than Kamala, and pretending that he can do worse to them is to whitewash what is currently happening and to downplay the decade long genocide.
