When u know who posted before clicking.
When you post articles that use data that is damn near a month out of date. Polls from August 25th? Or is it August 27th? Wasn’t that prior to the debate pounding that Harris gave Trump? On top of that where is this data from? What CAIR has posted at first glance does not include geographic breakdowns, so where did that data actually come from?
I didn’t write the Rueters news article. The date of the article shows “September 19, 20243:21 PM MDT.”
If you believe any part of the article is inaccurate, I encourage you to reach out to the news organization that published it.
Everyone constantly down votes you but I appreciate being informed that Jill Stein sucks. 🤷🏻♂️
Jill Stein doesn’t put in the efforts between presidential elections to promote her party or to get her candidates elected in local, state or federal elections.
She’s not for helping anyone besides herself and a majority of Muslim Americans realize this.
You just get that impression because the media isnt interested in her between elections. She continues having events and talks and doing political work.
How many people in her party are elected in local, state or federal governments?
You really cant be crusading against a party being elected and then try and complain that theyre not getting elected.
I’ll allow this article to slide because the title says it all. See you tomorrow SB.
I didn’t write the title. I didn’t write the article. In fact, it’s a Reurters article. So please bring up your issues with them directly. Thank you!
1.34% of the American population, the third largest religion in the US behind Christianity and Judaism.
I’m also going to point out that voting based on what’s happening to people who share your religion in a foreign country is a TERRIBLE idea. If you make that your voting priority, it will bite you in the face in other aspects of your life because someone will exploit you for their own ends. The same is pretty much true for any single issue voter.
We’re all free to be stupid, but it probably won’t end well.
So I’ve been thinking, if I was in these folks shoes, what should I be doing?
I think the Uncommitted movement nailed it on the head: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/sep/19/harris-uncommitted-movement-declines-endorse
tldr - the stupid FPTP system in the US means we effectively are stuck between two candidates, GOP and Dem, and of the two, the GOP one would be much much worse. So without endorsing they still recommend voting for the Dem candidate for President - while also voting down the ballot for candidates who better represent their views (and might be able to make the future President listen or at least rein the President in - e.g. enough Dem House Reps might be able to table a future bill to increase arms sales to Israel).
The most useful thing individuals can do to change or enact specific policy is to get involved in party politics, because the party platforms are decided internally and either becoming a party delegate, or working to garner votes from delegates for particular policies actually works.
How about based on whats happening to people that dont share my religion? Because what is happening is so horrific it doesnt matter what group they belong to, it must be stopped.
When was the last time you posted about the other genocides going on? Do you even know which ones I’m talking about?
Or are you just following the social context around the Israel-Palestine conflict and ignoring the fact that there are multiple other major genocides occurring right now? One of them has had a few hundred thousand kids forcibly separated from their parents and sent to special boarding schools, the other is at almost a half million deaths, both dwarfing the scale of the Israeli-Palestine conflict by almost an order of magnitude.
How about them? Where’s the university protests? Where’s the demands for divestment? You haven’t even made a single comment or post about any of them from what I can see.
Nah, this one is the fad genocide to be all upset about right now.
The Muslim population in swings states is larger than the margin Biden won in 2020.
The Muslim population isn’t a single voting bloc, and a good chunk are still voting Democrat.
On the flip side, the Jewish population is almost twice the size of the Muslim population, so pissing them off is probably worse.
Any vote for Harris is taking a vote away from a third-party candidate and is giving it to Trump.
Nope. Every vote for Harris is stealing a vote from third-party candidates who represent real change. By sidelining those voices, you’re indirectly helping Trump win!
If you really want to avoid a Trump win, supporting a viable alternative outside the two-party system is the only way to push the conversation forward. :)
