If a Republican was in power, would it be bad or worse for Palestinians?

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 7 points 2 years ago

It would be the same. When it comes to matters of maintaining the Empire, both parties are the same (although Republicans tend to overestimate its power in ridiculous ways, ironically hastening its decline).

On domestic issues there's slight differences like who runs the EPA, NLRB, FTC, etc.

This isn't about the Republicans. This is about YOUR party doing genocide. Deflecting to the greater evil doesn't negate that fact AT ALL.

Who's blocking the majority of legislation the ruling party is trying to enact? Republicans.

Nope can't deflect to the Republicans this time; Democrats overwhelmingly voted to send munitions to an active ongoing genocide.
