Voting isn’t marriage. You aren’t looking for the perfect match. Voting is like public transportation. You pick the bus that will go closest to your desired destination. Refusing to get on the bus doesn’t fix anything. You literally stay where you are.

There was a time when we were smart enough to realize that NAZI GERMANY and HITLER were on the wrong side of history. Now, MAGA and the GOP are determined to repeat the mistakes of HITLER and lead America to the same end. Keep Republicans who rejects MAGA and Trump - throw the rest in the trash.

Anti-Zionism ≠ anti-Semitism as some of Zionism very worst cheerleaders are "christian" nationalist neo-Nazis & some of it's most vocal opponents are Jewish. Conflating anti- Zionism with anti-semitism is a trope used by apologists for Israel's ethnic cleansing & myriad war crimes.
