frankly, the response that you all have to people hating Biden because he has been brazenly aiding genocide and even with these recent aid drops is being utterly monstrous (dropping expired non-halal items) and is not using the power he has to actually stop this... it is not only about Palestinians, though they are the primary concern. For some of us, it is a reminder that if the US started aiding our people's destruction, you'd stand by it out of cowardice that criticism might make your life harder.

#cipher talk #I live in the US. I know Trump was terrible. I am trans. By virtue of that alone I know the stages of genocide are progressing in this #Country and I have a target on my back #Those stages have continued to progress under Biden by the damn way #But like. Being Coptic I also feel very aware of the risk of outbreaks in political violence for my community there as well #I look at Sudan and hope that I don't see a point in my lifetime where things reach that level #Because I do recognize a shared struggle with non Arab Sudanis and Copts even if historically we've been shit at recognizing that #I already know what it's like to wake up and hear of dozens dead from a fire caused my infrastructural neglect and racism #I know how helpless it is.
