The day before elections, content influencer Daniel Amit posted an emotional Instagram Story expressing her deep fear regarding the election results and the public atmosphere in Israel. Amit, who had largely avoided discussing the elections until then, urged her followers to vote, but voiced concerns about the social cost regardless of the outcome.
"I'm so afraid of any result," Amit admitted tearfully in the video. "Because whether it's Bibi or Bennett or Eizenkot, it doesn't matter, there will be 50% of the nation that won't be satisfied." She explained that her primary fear was not about who would win, but about the deepening societal divisions. "The hatred is more frightening than any enemy, the potential for a civil war here, the violent discourse and the division, that scares me more than anything," she stated.
Amit elaborated on her previous reluctance to engage in political discourse, citing a lack of emotional capacity for the intense subject. "I didn't properly enter the election arena because I didn't feel I had the mental bandwidth for it. It's such a burning issue that my soul couldn't contain it, and here I am in the last minute mustering all my strength for you to go out and vote." She also touched upon the cost of living and draft evasion, suggesting a change might be beneficial: "If we already have the not-good, why not try something else? Go out and vote tomorrow."
Despite her anxieties, Amit aimed to convey a message of unity, emphasizing that even those with opposing political views desire the best for the country. "In the end, everyone wants what's best for the country. It's just that everyone sees its good differently. We are not the same people and not everyone has the same way of thinking," she wrote. She concluded by urging her followers to remember that even those who vote differently from her are motivated by good intentions, and to avoid hatred.
