“After extensive consultation, discussion, and deliberation, the American Muslim 2024 Election Task Force has decided to encourage American Muslims to vote for any presidential candidate of their choosing who supports a permanent ceasefire in Gaza and a US arms embargo on the Israeli government, such as candidates Dr Jill Stein, Dr Cornel West or Chase Oliver,” read the statement, obtained by Middle East Eye.

The statement was written by the American Muslim 2024 Election Task Force, an umbrella group formed this year that consists of a number of prominent Muslim organisations including the political arms of Americans for Justice in Palestine (AJP), Cair, and the US Council of Muslim Organizations.

“We cannot endorse Vice President Kamala Harris’ candidacy because of her refusal to even consider imposing the arms embargo on the Israeli government required by US laws and her failure to promise any other changes whatsoever to President Biden’s failed policy of steadfast financial, diplomatic and military support for Israel’s genocide in Gaza,” the statement read.

                Oh, have you officially inducted me into being a secret Republican now? Please, keep displaying your crankery, it makes supporters of democrats look as deranged as they are.

                    I don’t care which neoliberal party wins one specific presidential election. I don’t think on alarmist timelines where every successive election is The Most Important Election of Our Lifetime and carries a totalizing importance that makes all the rest of the future a footnote. What I care more about are the substantive elements of party platforms and how those platforms change, and if one of them can change at all, it’s the Democrats.

              How do you feel about the war in Ukraine? Is that not material reality?

              Western Mainstream Media made the whole thing up? It’s just a special military operation to remove a handful of nazis?

                What on Earth are you talking about? Like here:

                Western Mainstream Media made the whole thing up?

                Who on Earth thinks there is no war in Ukraine?

                How do you feel about the war in Ukraine? Is that not material reality?

                Again, what on Earth are you asking? War is always tragic, yes, and war is happening because of Matetial Conditions, not random emotions or vibes. What are you getting at?

                What’s with the random non-sequitor?
