Hmm, needs more pouty.
Needs less gloaty. You're getting the only thing any centrist wants no matter who wins.
Trump is likely to win this election. That's not what I want, and certainly isn't what Gazans want. What are you doing to avoid that outcome?
I've already voted for Harris. I'm not going to shut up and be happy about genocide.
You realise you're discouraging everyone else from voting for Harris though right?
You don't want opposition to genocide and don't care a wet slap about anything else. This is a tiny platform full of entrenched pro-genocide centrists (like yourself). Nothing I say is going to convince anyone to stop supporting Harris, even if that were my intention. Or to stop supporting the genocide all centrists masturbate to.
Don't bother me with your complicity any more. It's disgusting.
Can you help me understand why you think people want genocide?
People may be ambivalent, yes... but you seem to believe people actually support genocide.
Sure. First of all, Republicans want genocide and Netanyahu wants genocide. These are both givens.
The thing I've seen that convinced me is how quickly centrist Democrats give up on every other issue, and how devoted they are to maintain the support for genocide at all costs. This is where they grew a backbone. This is their hill. They're willing to risk democracy itself rather than budge so much as a Planck length on this one issue.
And express the slightest displeasure at how Democrats have deferred leadership to a right-wing genocidal despot an ocean away, and centrists immediately scream that you're a Trumper or a Russian.
You haven't helped me understand why you think people want genocide. Not even a tiny bit.
Don’t bother with them. They do this shit all the time.
It's like an emotional fixation with the word "genocide". I have a morbid fascination with that frame of mind. Like what is the compulsion to believe everyone around you is evil? In any case, I don't think this person is capable of helping me understand that.
You didn't read my comment and never intended to, then.
