Donald Trump has said that Palestinians have “no alternative” but to leave Gaza due to the devastation left by Israel’s war on Hamas, in effect endorsing ethnic cleansing of the territory over the opposition of Palestinians and the neighbouring countries.
Speaking as he prepared to host Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, on Tuesday, Trump repeated the suggestion that Gaza’s population should be relocated to Jordan and Egypt – something both countries have firmly rejected.
Trump claimed Palestinians would “love to leave Gaza”, telling reporters: “I would think that they would be thrilled.”

I too hope to avoid genocide, but unfortunately, it would seem neither Gaza nor me will be avoiding it under the Trump presidency.
no. we’re pissed at people like you because you bought obvious right wing propaganda and refuse to own it. you ignored the principals of harm reduction in the anarchist movement to keep your soul clean. you don’t care about what action in a given moment of time will result in the best outcome for the people you claim to care about. you care about being seen as right. i want to know. did you talk to anyone at the protests? did you talk to any Palestinians? because the people out there in the streets knew what was stake. we voted for kamala. we held our nose and did it because of the candidates who had a chance of becoming president, she gave us the best chances of continuing to fight for human rights.
and do you know what i noticed? your ilk has all but vanished from these leftist spaces online after the election. honestly, it’s friggin’ exhausting having people like you saying people like us are just trying to score points or virtue signaling.
yes. kamala harris, joe biden, and hillary clinton are all awful people who suck, and the democrats tried to get away with running someone right of what their base wanted because donald trump was SO HORRIBLE. that doesn’t change the fact that donald trump really is SO HORRIBLE
My l*beral in christ I literally voted for kamala
Believe it or not, not everyone who doesn’t like liberals is a conservative or “tankie”, it’s just that nobody likes you. “Meet an asshole every day” and all that
voting is not harm reduction
it’s a tiny itsy bitsy miniscule aspect of it
no, harm reduction is recognizing the harm is going to come, and mitigating the consequences. it’s not voting for someone who might only cause some harm.
yes. and for 20 minutes to 3 hours on election day that was casting a ballot. like i said. it’s a teeny tiny itsy bitsy aspect. it’s not everything, but in a lot of ways if you can’t bring yourself to even inconvenience yourself that little bit…
casting a ballot is not harm reduction
we’re talking in circles. today is a big day for me. i suggest instead of responding to me when you’re completely entrenched into your way of thought you spend some time today with some other marginalized people and help them out. i’m done with this conversation. it’s clear you’re the type of anarchist from David Rovics’ “i’m a better anarchist than you”
I hope you learn what harm reduction is someday
ooof. David Rovics platforms Nazis. I’m a way better anarchist than him.
What have you done to mitigate the consequences?
