Summary
Palestinians in the West Bank are largely pessimistic about Donald Trump’s re-election, viewing it as unlikely to significantly worsen their already dire situation, though some fear it could embolden Israeli actions.
Trump’s support for Israel’s far-right policies, including the potential dismantling of the UN agency Unrwa and backing of Israeli settlements, could deepen economic hardship and escalate violence against Palestinians.
While some Palestinians worry about increased oppression, others see a Trump presidency as a chance to expose brutal realities, possibly sparking stronger resistance.
People standing up for Palestine didn’t vote for fucking Trump. They mostly begrudgingly voted for Harris.
I’m not going to cast judgement on actual Palestinians who had their entire bloodlines erased by the Biden / Harris administration not being able to stomach voting for Harris.
Regardless, they weren’t a big enough voting block to sway the election.
The blame lies more with the DNC, Republicans, Trump. Hell 55% of Latino men voted for Trump.
Why couldn’t Biden / Harris do the bare minimum to stop sending countless bombs and weapons to Israel for an entire year of non-stop genocide? Are they completely guilt free in your mind?
Even if some Arab Americans couldn’t bring themselves to vote for Harris, they were not actively voting for Trump.
Palestinians have never done anything wrong except try to exist on their native land while undergoing decades of genocide while the world remained largely silent.
“You get what you fucking deserve.”
Scratch a liberal, a fascist bleeds. Don’t pretend you were ever on the left or ever stood against the genocide if that’s your attitude. You’re just trying to make it easy on yourself for not actually standing for anything and you’re just as guilty as those genocidal maniacs.
