    Just because you’re uplifted by the prospect of voting for someone who will continue unconditional arms sales to a genocidal regime, that doesn’t mean everyone who voted for Harris is.

    Some of us are disgusted and resent what the Democratic Party has done here.

      Where are you getting the premise that I enthusiastically condone Harris’s stance on Israel? I was careful to not leave any reason for that misinterpretation of my reply. I think you are intentionally mischararcterizing me as a genocide supporter. I only insist that the most sensible action now is to vote for the best overall candidate even if you can’t condone this particular position of theirs.

        Because instead of even attempting to understand the person you replied to, you lectured instead. They weren’t talking about not voting for Harris. They were talking about not being happy about it.

          I’m not really interested in changing that individual’s mind. That was more for the viewers. I did not like the vibes they were spreading.

              It looks like we’ve both blown our loads and run out of steam. I’m disengaging before this thread turns into something that will embarrass my future self.
