No I care that Trump is giving Israel more weapons, more money, open approval for genocide, and now floating US troops doing the genocide directly instead of humanitarian aid and logistics. But you haven't let reality influence so far so I don't expect it to now either.

Nah, no you don't, as evidenced by the fact that you don't care about the people actually being killed. You only care about the symbolic factor.

Yeah, exactly: you care more about what your politicians say than what they do.

But you haven’t let reality influence so far so I don’t expect it to now either.

This is very rich coming from someone who thinks a politicians rhetoric is more real than the actual facts on the ground in Gaza.
