Criticism means nothing if you show the people you criticize that you will vote for them anyway, regardless of what they do.

By the way, Trump says “finish the job,” while the democrats are actively helping them do it. Y’all just don’t actually care.

You can criticize someone you voted for an intend to vote for. You can not fully like everything about a person that you vote for.

Your vote is to change something in this country and if your change is able to help other people keep their rights, is that not enough? Not only will choosing not to vote or choosing someone else give Trump more of a likelihood of winning; due to Project 2025 and the recent supreme court ruling on the Presidential power- it will also endanger and likely take away the rights of trans people, lgb+ people, POC, and immigrants in the US.

Dooming Everyone is NOT the outlook to have. Save the people you can with the power that you have- you cannot change the system by voting or not. Changing the system and the views of others happens on a local level first.

If your vote for president is not enough, have you looked at the House or Senate seats and seen whether anyone running in your state supports Palestine? Can you vote for Bernie Sanders (vermont), Mckayla Wilkes (maryland), Jamaal Bowman (New York), Cori Bush (missouri), Shahid Buttar (California), Shaniyat Chowdhury (NY), Arati Kreibich (New Jersey) or any others that are staunchly pro-Palestine?

And if you want to do more, then put your money and time into supporting Palestinians and going to protests and calling your local authorities about things. If your politician doesn't support what you do- then TALK about it. With people in your area. With people at the grocery store. With your neighbors. With your local authorities. Go to town hall meetings. Get people to care.

I have multiple signs up supporting Palestine in my office. It gets people to talk about it and show more vocal support. They feel more comfortable being able to bring it up with others. Maybe you could wear a pin, have a banner on your fb or instagram, or show your support in another way.

A large amount of Democrats do not support Israel. While Biden has absolutely not done what he could have with his position to protect Palestinians, Kamala and other democrats have not been in that position yet and deserve a chance and not an assumption that they'll do the same as their predecessors.

I personally do not think that it will be much better- especially given that the House overruled Biden's one refusal to send Israel weapons- but it WILL be better than Trump handing Israel an arsenal and telling them to wipe the Palestinians out. Because Israel absolutely will take advantage of that and more Palestinians will be hurt and killed at a much faster rate.

Los Lakers inauguran la estatua de Kobe Bryant... y le dedicarán dos más. Vanessa Bryant anunció que en el futuro habrá en el pabellón otras dos estatuas en homenaje al mito. La suya es la más grande de las seis que tiene la franquicia en honor a sus leyendas. JESÚS SÁNCHEZ Perfeccionista hasta el extremo, con una mentalidad casi obsesiva que le impulsó a ser el nuevo Michael Jordan, su ídolo, y le llevó a ser el primer Kobe Bryant, la leyenda de la NBA, que lo controlaba todo, también tenía previsto cómo sería su estatua. Porque el mito de los Lakers sabía que iba a tener una junto al pabellón de la franquicia a la que dedicó su carrera en el mejor baloncesto del mundo. Los Lakers descubrieron la creación en la Plaza de la Fama que se encuentra en los aledaños del Crypto.com Arena y la sorpresa es que la escultura, la más grande de todas las que saludan a los aficionados de los Lakers antes de entrar recinto de 20.000 espectadores, es la que precisamente quería Kobe. Bryant por Kobe, con el '8' en el día histórico de los 81 puntos. Este momento no es solo para Kobe sino para todos los fans que le habéis animado en todos estos años Vanessa Bryant La creación, que vio la luz bajo el confetti, ante los ojos de la familia y de algunas leyendas de los Lakers como Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Jamaal Wilkes o Pau Gasol,representa al jugador señalando al cielo mientras camina. Lleva el uniforme blanco, el que entonces sólo se usaba los domingos, y aparece con el '8'. Corresponde a la imagen de Kobe caminando al banquillo después de anotar el tiro libre con el que llegó a los 81 puntos, segunda marca de la NBA y récord en la franquicia californiana, donde han jugado casi todos los mejores jugadores de la historia. Para que conste, Kobe eligió la postura que vais a ver (de la primera estatua). Así que si alguien tiene algún problema con ello, qué mala suerte. Es lo que hay Vanessa Bryant Vanessa Bryant reveló que hay dos más en camino, una junto a su hija Gigi, también fallecida en el accidente de helicóptero que costó la vida a Kobe en enero de 2020, y otra del jugador con el '24'. Jugador excesivo se mire por donde se mire, tendrá tres estatuas. "El la eligió así, es lo que hay. si alguien tiene algún problema...", dijo la viuda de Kobe. La escultura, que tiene tatuados en el brazo los nombres de las cuatro hijas de Kobe, es 60 centímetros más alta que la de Magic y 90 más que la de Kareem, que es gigantesca. Y el doble que la de Shaq. Tiene grabados todos los récords del jugador, el cuarto anotador de todos los tiempos en la NBA. Los Lakers han elegido a su rey. Dedicada a "Kobe Bean Bryant - 'Black Mamba'". Pau Gasol no faltó "Esta estatua puede parecerse a Kobe, pero en realidad es lo que representa la excelencia, la disciplina, el compromiso, el amor a la familia", dijo Abdul-Jabbar, uno de los que habló junto a Phil Jackson, el hombre con el que Kobe ganó todos sus anillos de amarillo y púrpura, que tuvo palabras muy cariñosas con Bryant. "Le conocí muy joven y fui viendo el hombre en el que se convirtió". Esta estatua puede parecerse a Kobe, pero en realidad es lo que representa la excelencia, la disciplina, el compromiso, el amor a la familia Abdul-Jabbar, leyeda de los Lakers Junto a las leyendas y la plana mayor de la franquicia acudieron a este acto excompañeros de Bryant como Derek Fisher o Metta World Peace, rivales y amigos como Dwayne Wade, la mítica jugadora Candance Parker, que llevaba una camiseta de Gigi, y el cantante Bad Bunny. Pau estuvo junto a su esposa Catherine y se sentó al lado de Adam Silver, comisionado de la NBA, lo que habla, en cuestiones protocolarias, de su estatus. Jeanie Buss, presidenta y máxima accionista de los Lakers, lo resumió mejor que nadie. "Nunca habrá otro Kobe Bryant". La estatua estará abierta al público a las 09.00 de la mañana hora local de Los Ángeles. "Será un lugar de peregrinación en esta ciudad", dijo Buss.
