As the president begins his last international trip before the election, the fear in the crowd is that conflict in Gaza is tripping him up.

    Doing the “I’m rubber, you’re glue” thing won’t work here, because you’re the one talking about doing this to stop genocide, not me. And yet you are apparently totally unconcerned with the ongoing trans genocide in America and how it would get worse under Trump.

    If that does concern you, what do you plan to do about it? Will you just stand by as trans people are marched into camps and say, “I guess Biden should have done what I wanted” or do you have some sort of idea of how to stop things from getting that far that doesn’t rely on other people you don’t even know to do what you personally want?

    Generally when I get into discussions like this with people like you, they deny there is a trans genocide going on and imply there won’t be one if Trump gets in either. Let’s see if you’re more grounded in reality and can actually answer my question.

      Hey, I’m the one trying to get Joe to win the election here, if you’re fine with just giving up and letting he lose it that’s up to you, I won’t accuse you of secretly wanting trans people to die because that’s a fucked up thing to say and helps no one.

      But to answer your question, when trans people are being marched to camps because Joe Biden didn’t want to say Israel should stop killing children I’ll do what I always do and fight beside them.

        What does “fight beside them” mean? They won’t be fighting for the same reason Jews didn’t fight when Nazis came for them. They were met with an overwhelming force in the entire Nazi government.

        So what exactly do you plan to?

          I plan to not have a conversation about resistance movements and guerrilla warfare with you right now. See you around and good luck

            The resistance movements and guerilla warfare that stopped the Holocaust?

            The resistance movements and guerilla warfare that is stopping the genocide in Gaza?

            You plan not having a conversation about them because they don’t work. But you also aren’t interested in talking about stopping it before it starts.
