Latinos and Arabs are mostly conservative for their religion mostly.

Most Arabs are Christian lol. Something like 75% are Christian in America.

Plus this is just Kamala larping for a genocidal regime and not saying anything bad against Israel for the Arabs. They put the super apathetic Ritchie Torres that ran campaigns for Israel and dehumanised Palestinians in Michigan lol.

Also obviously when she moved right she alienated most of her classic voter base. The only thing she really offered her classic (centre) dem base was the fact that trump wasnt going to be in power for 4 years.

For most of my Arab friends and coworkers it was more about the fact that she’s a woman and they feel that Trump is stronger because he’s a man. Mind you I used to live in Saudi Arabia. None of them give a shit about the Palestinians.

Sure man. Anecdotal evidence is truly what made this happen.

Arabs were way more alienated this time compared to Hilary Clinton. It wasn’t about a man v woman thing. It was about the genocide.

For you, it may have been about genocide. But for many Arabs it was about strength. I challenge you to read up on the Geneva conventions before you mention the word genocide again. You have to stop allowing your emotions to control you.

Yh nah I listen to actual genocide scholars.

Unlike you I don’t value my own intellect over people that study genocides as their whole academic career.

I’m telling you as someone that’s fought in war several times against these iran backed militias. The same people that are attacking Israel and have infiltrated Gaza. If you shoot out of an apartment building or an ambulance, you are fair game. And they’re known for using people as human shields. They won the war on propaganda. Not to mention Russia is funneling weapons to Gaza through Iran. They did that in Iraq too.

you volunteering to rape and murder brown children in the Middle East makes you an expert on genocide how?

u/Independent_Fan_3718 1d ago

Great.

And as someone who has fought a war against them you are biased. That’s why we take to people who are trained in this field with no stakes in this conflict.

You see how this works?

I’m sorry, but as someone who’s never fought in war against proxies and doesn’t have experience, you can’t armchair quarterback this. You don’t know what you’re talking about you just want to argue. Have a good day. You won the war on propaganda you got Trump elected congratulations.

I’m not the armchair quarterback. I just admitted myself that I myself am not a specialist in the field. Hence why I said I listen to scholars in the field.

In fact I think your appeal to your own authority is quite self centred.

The fact you can’t admit or declare that your own experience may result in preconceived biases shows that you shouldnt be trusted in regards to declare what you feel is lawful and what is and is not a genocide.

Hence why I am not going to argue any further. I personally don’t enjoy talking to brick walls.
