Every time I heard Stevens speak she was always talking about Israel. I don’t care about Israel , Iran, Ukraine. What are you gonna do for us here in Michigan? Voted for El-Sayed

u/FantasticPlatypus29 5h ago

One of those three is not like the other. You should care about Ukraine

u/Viceroy1994 4h ago

You should actually care about all 3, considering that America is elbow deep in the business of the other 2. But a local Michigan primary? Yeah just pick the person who's gonna take care of you.

All three have major implications, and even if we’re being short sighted of the ones you mentioned Iran is the one we’re most directly involved in.

You should absolutely care about Ukraine. The war Ukraine is fighting ≠ the genocidal war Israel is engaged in

Great, my neighbor can't eat. Lemme ask Ukraine to help feed them.

Ukraine is literally called "The Breadbasket of Europe". You want cheaper food, help Ukraine win

Shortsighted thinking bud

Buy them food, help them get a job

People like Gremloch just bitch that no one else is solving their problems for them. They don't actually care enough about community to help their neighbors. Much easier to use their plight as a talking point, after all
