More than 100 Arizona Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, and progressive Democrats and community leaders have signed a letter making the case for those reluctant to support Kamala Harris against Donald Trump.
“We know that many in our communities are resistant to vote for Kamala Harris because of the Biden administration’s complicity in the genocide,” the letter, published Thursday night, reads.
“Some of us have lost many family members in Gaza and Lebanon. We respect those who feel they simply can’t vote for a member of the administration that sent the bombs that may have killed their loved ones,” the letter continued. “As we consider the full situation carefully, however, we conclude that voting for Kamala Harris is the best option for the Palestinian cause and all of our communities.”

New York, LA Times, and Chicago Tribune. Do your own homework on the dates you lazy SOB. It’s fucking public record.
Not the way this works, you knob. You make a claim, YOU back it up. Don’t go handing out homework assignments, this isn’t 5th period civics.

Usually, when I’m presented with information I’m unfamiliar with, I take a minute to search it myself before I expose everyone to my ignorance, especially when the comment isn’t directed at me. Anyway, the original commenter was being a bit hyperbolic, but yes, the Harris campaign has made some major snubs towards the Arab community, and she hasn’t done any campaign events with Arab leaders.
Usually, when i make some kind of claim, i back it up with links without being pissy about it. But hey, you managed several little backhanded digs, so go slay queen.
You’re right, let me be a little more front-handed; Harris’ rejection of the Palestinian community has been in the news since this summer, and you and the other commenter are kinda showing your whole ass by going, “Harris excluding Muslims? LOL, source,” especially since your commenting on an article about her struggles with the Muslim community that directly references one of the examples I gave you. People should be able to back up their claims with sources, but they’re not obligated to explain the news to you.
All this because you’re trying to hand out homework. Next time, just link your sources, the first time. I have no dog in this hunt beyond pointing out your smug superiority.
Yeah, once again, that wasn’t me. If you looked at the profilr name, or read my first comment more carefully, you’d know that was a different commenter. I just get annoyed when people demand sources when they clearly haven’t even read the article their commenting on.
I get annoyed at people making some easily backed up claim, and then following up with “do your own homework.” Fuck that. You (editorial “You”, not you personally) took the time to type out the response, but expect other to locate and follow your trail of breadcrumbs?
