Palestinians aren't asking you to vote for Biden, you might notice. Arab Americans are voting for him in significantly lower numbers, in fact. If you want to pretend like you care about victims, maybe listen to them.

And, for what it's worth, a vote for Biden is a vote for Biden. He doesn't care if you scold him as long as you vote for him. Any 'activism' you engage in ultimately means nothing if you give him your vote at the end of the day.

And really, please quit with the 'not voting is a vote for Trump' thing. It's a vote for Trump as much as it's a vote for Biden—which is to say, it helps neither. The implicit assumption under saying it helps Trump is that my vote belongs rightfully to Biden.
