Would you support someone who supports arming police to carry out a genocide in Portland?

No?

Then why would you support someone who supports arming IDF to carry out a genocide in Gaza?

What is the material difference that causes you to not support one thing, but support the other?

Nationalism. You are a nationalist. You just do not realise it.

You support american supremacism, as long as it comes with the promise that it will improve your life. You support genocide in Gaza if a politician will tell you they'll make your life better while they do it.

You don't support it in Portland because then it would be happening to AMERICANS.

You are a nationalist and you are an American supremacist.
