Nobody should vote for these genocidal fucks. There is no excuse to vote for genocide.
But when it comes to paying, serious question: Is there any way to avoid having the money I am forced to accrue and produce with my labor stolen from my paycheck and used to murder people? Other than the extremely obvious.
This is not a joke, this is not a bit, this is not attempt to excuse people doing nothing, this is not an attempt to struggle-session with you. I've seriously wondered if I should quit my job and start robbing yuppies for rent money but down that path lies a quick death that achieves ... nothing? of useful strategy.
And maybe the answer is that the most moral and only thing to do is do the obvious and die with our souls pure. But I have a family and I know what the state would do to them -- arrest, interrogate, and torture them to set an example to others. It's not moral but I can't do that to them, they've been put through so much horrible shit at the hands of the US Empire already.
There's so much more you could find at https://gazafunds.com/. And if you think every single one of those gofundmes are scams, there's always the Municipality of Gaza https://gaza-city.ensany.com/campaign/6737 that are trying to raise money for:
Water supply enhancement projects
Maintenance of water wells
Implementation of water desalination initiatives
Management of waste collection and disposal systems
Reconstruction of roads demolished during war
Implementation of sewage water pumping and treatment schemes
Execution of pest control and rodent eradication programs
Enhance water provisions for residents and maintain consistency.
Manage the collection and disposal of accumulated waste throughout the city.
Address sewage overflow and sanitation issues across various areas of the city.
Initiate the reopening of key thoroughfares to facilitate emergency vehicle access.
Clear debris from the cityscape to restore ease of movement for residents.
Provide aid to the personnel of the Gaza Municipality Emergency Committee.
To say that our only choice as people living within the imperial core is to either do adventurism, fuck off into the woods, or do absolutely nothing is a ridiculous dichotomy.
From each according to their abilities to each according to their needs.

That's not what I was saying. I was responding to the very narrow framing of american citizens being forced to pay for genocide and saying I don't see how to solve that specific problem.
In any case and more importantly, thank you for linking ways people can actively help. I'd rather my money go toward saving lives than ending them.
