    Can you do anything about the genocide on natives that your tax dollars are funding right now?

        The US sends $3.3bil to Israel every year, and has sent a bonus $14.5bil 2 months ago.

          Not what we’re talking about, but you should be writing to your reps about this. Most people just feel bad and move on. Actually writing a letter will get attention

              Me either, but my government is an ally to the US and also contributes their own aid to Israel, so it applies to me. Assuming you’re in a democracy, it’s very likely you have some stake (even small) in the genocide.

              Even boycotting goods produced on occupied land is a small step anyone can take.
