3. Who's 'they'? If it's the Palestinian victims of Israel, they can't vote in US elections...

I find two things extremely irritating. One is those who either didn't vote or voted for Trump out of a misguided sense of protesting against the Biden administrations lacklustre opposition to what Israel was doing. The second is those who enter conversations about Gaza, don't have a thing to say about the death and destruction, and trot out the tedious and repetitive and sometimes just downright incorrect claims that university protesters and/or Muslim Americans and/or young people (there can be intersectionality between those groups) were responsible for Trump winning. Not saying yr doing that, but there's a few frequent fliers in threads about Gaza in GD I see doing it a lot and it's stupid. Late Friday arvo vent done
