First, I think the ceasefire is better ascribed to time and mounting global backlash than it is to Trump
Doesn’t matter what the reasons were, what matters is Trump relented and Biden and Harris didn’t. Despite just as much, if not more backlash (because of their kayfabe of being liberal), they didn’t budge an inch and were so fanatical and dedicated they sacrificed the presidency to maintain support for the genocide, despite the fact internal polling and data was showing the genocide was costing them millions of votes.
That is why your arguments don’t make sense on their face. The DNC is STILL in lockstep with AIPAC and Israel, there hasn’t been any movement internally in the Democratic Party, so it’s ludicrous to assert the Democratic Party would magically change if they won elections without addressing the genocide. All you would accomplish would be to signal to the DNC that they’ve regained their power by being fanatical Zionists and that the American people don’t truly care about genocide, giving them a future permission structure to aid or commit new genocides
Trump’s revocation of USAID funding is projected to lead to 9.4 million deaths by 2030
That nonsense assumes the vacuums wouldn’t be filled by long-suppressed native industries, markets and state initiatives that were undercut by cartel-like “aid”, as well there not being any international aid to make up potential shortfalls
It’s pure racist, paternalistic gibberish with no data to support it. USAID was a US intelligence front that actively destabilized local markets and funneled wealth and “aid” into the hands of corrupt compradors who used to enrich themselves and their families, leading to underfunded industries and communities that likely already led to the deaths of millions
Also I should point out sanctions do kill millions of people and Biden intensified them against Cuba, Iran, Venezuela, even beyond Trump 1 levels, Biden created new frameworks to expand sanctions by orders of magnitude, giving Trump a useful weapon in his second term…
But that’s not genocide, it’s spread across the globe, so it’s not really the same
Then why are you trying to clumsily use the myth of that claim to engage in genocide trivialization? Capitalism through social murder kills millions of people every month. It doesn’t mean genocide isn’t a far more qualitatively abominable development that leads to civilizational destruction far beyond the typical deaths caused by poverty and overall population size
The problem here is you don’t see Palestinians as people deserving of the same unqualified right to exist as anyone else. I bet a million fuckin bucks you’d have never made that sorry argument in relation to Ukraine or the Holocaust
