        Can they put forward a candidate who doesn’t want to play an active role in arming a genocide? Is that just too much to ask? Genuinely asking, cause it kind of sounds like that’s what youre trying to say. 2024 election is done, it’s over. This is about what comes next.

          This is about what comes next.

          Pain, suffering, loss of rights, and death because a bunch of dumb assholes stayed home or voted 3rd party instead of accepting that voting Harris was infinitely more responsible and better for our nation than staying home or voting 3rd party?

            No, the pain, suffering loss of rights and death were because the DNC decided that continuing a genocide was more important than winning an election against one of the least popular presidents we’ve ever had.

            Maybe next time they should pick a candidate that the people actually want.

            Thanks for ignoring my whole comment. If you’re defeatist, you’ve decided that it’s all over, then stay out of the conversation. Your genocide defending commentary is not required or requested. If you’re not done, you’re not defeatist then demand that your political party do better.

              Nah kiddo. You cried about religion-based genocide between two nations on the other side of the planet while helping fascism take hold on this side of the planet where you fucking live because you wanted to be righteous about a single fucking issue instead of growing the fuck up and making an adult decision.

              Fuck you, scrub.

      Harris could’ve eased Israel. Trump is capitulating 1000%. Gaza will be an ash pile in a year.

      Thank fuck you didn’t vote for Harris lmao. What a load of single-issue dogshit.

        It’s working out about as well as we expected it would. The Democrats were loudly told that running a terrible candidate, who supported genocide was a bad idea. They didn’t listen, and here we are.

        I feel like getting made at the people who couldn’t stomach voting for a genocidist is the wrong strategy. Getting mad at the people who ran on a platform of genocide seems like a better strategy.

          When will you dense fucks get that the trolley problem isn’t opt-outable? You’re as complicit as anyone else for allowing Dump to ruin our country over an issue that wasn’t savable to begin with.

          You get no high horse on this. In no way did Trump make any mention of not going just as hard as Kamala but you just let it happen anyway.

          Congrats. Now instead of a genocide you get… a genocide.

          Conscience good and clear?

            This is such a tired bullshit argument. You just want someone to be angry at. You’re no different than a MAGA with your lack of logic.

              You spread the message around the time of the election, you’re complicit in getting others to opt out of voting. One of your votes is meaningless. All of your votes could’ve turned the tide.

              Not deciding is a choice.

              Don’t worry, you’ll still have to live with the consequences. Congrats!

        Harris would not have eased Israel, she herself said as much.

        This comment isn’t about the 2024 election, it’s about the next one. Can the DNC not provide a candidate who refuses to arm a military committing genocide?

              How ignorant are you? We vote for someone. They become our representative. That happens in reality. Is money corrupting it? No fucking duh. Big congrats on figuring that out.

              But still. We vote. It happens. We still have elections. Sometimes the underdog wins, which means it’s still legitimate. For now.

              What we’re experiencing is democracy working, but in a situation where propaganda is winning, which is possible in a democracy. It corrupts democracy.

              Our democracy picked Trump because our society is sick.
