    What about Gazan interests? That’s been known to tilt an election or two.

      Geez I wonder why genocide would tilt an election; it’s not like it’s the most horrible crime man has ever committed.

        Agreed. People on online politics spaces tend to be very informed and assume the average person is similarly informed. From convos I’ve overheard or the amount of basic questions I’ve had to answer, I don’t think the average American has even heard of Gaza/West Bank/Palestine/Hamas or Netanyahu and probably only know Israel because it’s in the Bible.
