#at least have the decency to be ashamed of supporting a genocide and letting our leaders know they can get away with ANYTHING now

How I feel lately every time liberals try to argue with me that "Trump would be worse" so therefore I "have to" vote for one of the leaders of the current administration that is ALREADY DOING THE WORST THING HUMANLY POSSIBLE. Like that is an opinion you can only hold if you are not watching, if you are choosing not to see what is already happening.
I watched video footage of a young man in a medical tent hooked up to an IV reaching up toward the sky as he burned alive in his bed after the shelter he was in was fired on by Israel while people around him ran around in terror trying to find and save their loved ones and put out the fires. He burned alive along with his mother and younger brother, all of whom succumbed to the flames while their loved ones watched on in horror unable to safely rescue them.
I have seen countless videos and pictures of parents carrying their dismembered children, sometimes in little pieces inside bags mixed with pieces of others because they were so torn apart they couldn't even be properly separated to be given back to their loved ones to bury, sometimes mostly whole but with missing limbs and their insides on full display after bombs shredded their little bodies and buried them under rubble. I have seen footage of a living child being brought in for medical help missing the bottom half of her face, still conscious, aware, and suffering horrificly.
I have watched drone footage released by the IOF of them firing on unarmed civilians walking the roads searching for supplies and watched their bodies be blown to pieces for no reason beyond that they are Palestinian. I have watched recordings of IOF soldiers, often that they themselves shared online because they think it's a fucking joke, bragging to each about how many civilians they have killed that day, about how they killed them, about raping and torturing Palestinians.
I watched a video from a torture camp that the IOF would falsely call a prison of guards gang raping a hostage Palestinian, and then watched Israeli settlers rise up in protest over guards potentially facing punishment for rape of Palestinian hostages. I have seen pictures of queues of Palestinian men lined up by the occupation, separated from their wives and children, waiting to be marched to the site of mass graves and killed or otherwise disappeared as IOF hostages. I have watched footage of civilians lining up to receive aid only to be fired upon and killed instead, seen pictures of aid trucks and official UN vehicles full of bullet holes and covered in blood, seen press member after press member and doctor after doctor intentionally targeted and killed by Israel.
If you can watch those videos and look at those images and then watch our money, our bombs, our weapons, our soldiers being sent to commit these atrocities, listen to our leaders justify those things and promise to keep supporting those things being done to Palestinian civilians going forward while calling Palestinians and pro-Palestinian protestors terrorists, watch them smile at and shake the hand of the man who is leading this genocide and let him freely in and out of our country despite him being a wanted international war criminal, and still vote for one of the main people responsible? Still think "okay but the other guy would be worse" to make yourself feel better about it? You are indeed beyond saving.
