The Abandon Harris movement that sprouted late last year out of the widespread outrage over the Biden-Harris administration’s support for the ongoing Israeli war on Gaza has officially endorsed the Green Party’s Jill Stein for US president.
The endorsement is the first of its kind for Stein and the Green Party, with the Abandon Harris campaign being the first major Muslim-led political group to endorse her campaign this election cycle. Last month, a smaller group, the Muslim American Public Affairs Council NC, also endorsed Stein.
“We are not choosing between a greater evil and a lesser evil. We are confronting two destructive forces: one currently overseeing a genocide and another equally committed to continuing it. Both are determined to see it through,” the Abandon Harris campaign said in a statement released on Monday.
Can’t wait for tolerant liberals to go full mask off and claim these Muslims just must not be smart enough to realize the threat of Trump… Again.
One of said liberals is malding at me right now for pointing out that they are being blatantly racist.
They’ve been saying that for months right here on Lemmy.
You don’t think Trump is going to be infinitely worse than Harris on this issue in particular?
Being murdered in a genocide seems about as worse as it can get. Would Trump reanimate the corpses and then murder them again or something?
It doesn’t get worse than being genocided, is the point these people are making.
Both Harris and Trump, equally think Muslims and other unwanted statistically brown people deserve to be subject to genocide and are willing to commit massive amount of funds to that end.
Absolutely not. Historically, the DNC and GOP are in lock-step for foreign policy.
I don’t think that’s entirely accurate.
Why not?
If Trump were doing it you might getout of your chair and materially oppose it rather than making excuses for an imagined lesser evil genocide.
No Trump will be exactly the same. Only the words will be different.
I do believe Jill Stein will be different though.
