Okay... And what did you do here to move the needle on the Gaza issue? Holding your breath and turning blue feels like a moral high ground sure. But what did you actually do?

Wow you're a straight up asshole. Im sorry but there it is. Not a 'how can I help' but a fuck you. Gloriously on full display. And you wanted this person's support for harris? Bless your heart. Jesus i need a drink.

@[email protected] heres a hug for you and the shit you and your circle have been going through this last year. I'm really sorry for everything that has happened.

Appreciate it. My coworkers are incredible people, you could write a movie about the shit they've done. I know that in their place, I most likely wouldn't be able to give as much as they have to the people around them. They inspire me every day to continue doing what I'm doing, even when it's hard and often thankless.

I work with people in need and I send humanitarian aid. I'm doing what I am able to do, exhausting my savings and putting my future on the line for them. What did you actually do?

And that's great on a personal level, but what did it do in terms of this choice where Gaza was not featured but the possibility of a second genocide on your doorstep or the death of the democratic process that protects your right to protest and send that aid at all was being happily speculated on?

It didn't give a vote to a candidate that supports a genocide.

Uh huh. I hope that continues to feel worth it.
