concentration camps and millions being stripped of health insurance and food assistance
So like Gaza?
Because I’m pretty sure this was the logic for people who refused to vote that this very community spent an entire year assuring me was a bunch of tankie bots from ml.
There were a million reasons that people didn’t show for Harris. Why do you scold only the people who were outspoken against genocide? Can you point to any evidence that this issue swung the election?
Biden put Harris in a terrible position by holding out as long as he did. Then Harris ran a horrendous campaign. That is why she lost.
People who care about Gaza are people who are politically engaged. That not who stayed home. Politically engaged people vote third party when they want to protest, and third party votes did not sway this election. Not even close.
People who stay home are normies who have given up. A lot of people need inspiration to show up, and centrist Democrats just aren’t inspiring.
I can only suppose that your fixation on the genocide issue is because you like the genocide and were pissed off that people objected to it. That’s the only reason to bring this trash up in every damn conversation about the Trump administration.
The majority of people who didn’t vote for Harris don’t care about Gaza. They’re just larping on the internet.
She wasn’t a zionist and wanted to end the war. It was a clear cut decision, but it was a brown and black sacrifice people were willing to make for their moral purity.
So when she gets no support, why are Clinton Neoliberal, Reaganomics-poisoned-but-polite Liberals surprised? This is the Country they designed, on purpose.
She wasn’t a zionist and wanted to end the war
Citation? Because any time I saw anything indicating that, she IMMEDIATELY walked it back. And I’ve cited (shitty) sources.
It is possible for her to be a bad candidate who made consistently bad decisions, and for it still to be a bad choice for an individual to not vote for her.
Absolutely. That’s the sound of me pointing out the practical reality that sometimes all the choices are bad and people make up their mind for dumb reasons regardless of what choice they make.

I was ready to demand my Lefty comrades go vote for Kamala: after all, one Genocide is better than two genocides.
But then she came out “tough on the border” and took that from me. She promised to be every bit as hard as Trump.

But she worked HARD to alienate the Left. She took every piece of rhetoric I had and shat on it.
So we have Kamala caving on Gaza with rhetoric (and walking it back)

But flatly refusing to do anything:

Just like the Liberal Party. Promise almost nothing, make a symbolic gesture, do actually nothing.

trump still worse.

Do you even hear yourself?
Absolutely. That’s the sound of me pointing out the practical reality that sometimes all the choices are bad and people make up their mind for dumb reasons regardless of what choice they make.
