At her October 25 rally in Houston, Kamala Harris told pro-Palestine protestors to leave her rally and “rally down the street.” Shortly thereafter, during the same rally, she said that her campaign is the one for “freedom and democracy.” Her response to demonstrators, mirrored by our news media, have repeatedly mocked Americans who decry the genocide of the Palestinian people.
Silence!
Sit nicely and be Genocided.
Don’t you know it’s is a privilege for you to be here?
Don’t you know we allowed you?
Don’t you know we made you?
And you dare speak!
Silence!
I’m speaking!
Sit nicely and stop raising your hand.
Sit nicely and stop interrupting us.
Don’t you know we are working hard?
To get through our checklist for the day.
We have 3 checkboxes for you.
Ok we will give you one million.
For your Palestinians
Sit nicely while we check them:
Die
dying
almost dead
dead again
Silence!
We will not allow you to report, post or repost.
We will fire you, and not hire you.
We will track your devices.
We will face-recognize you.
We will deport you.
Silence!
We have arms to sell.
We have pockets to line.
We have senators and congressmen to elect and elevate.
We have senators and congressmen to defeat and displace.
And a president withering away,
And a possible first woman president,
And a possible forever term president.
Silence!
You are not a witness to a genocide.
What genocide?
