Campaigning with the daughter of a war criminal was not a good look, even if it didn't move Kamala right on any actual policy. It's perfectly reasonable to look askance at me if I'm out there doing campaign stops with Uday Hussein, even if I still support a $15 minimum wage.

What crimes did his daughter commit?

[–] Anamnesis 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Did I say she committed any crimes?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

So she's just guilty by association? That's an unfortunate way to judge people.

What bad things did your parent do? I want to judge you for it.

They're both Republicans so....yes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

That's ignorant. She's been critical of the Republican party for almost a decade.

Not many, but she campaigned for her war criminal father in 2004 so she at least didn't have issues with the principle.

What are the "not many" crimes she committed? List them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah fair enough. That should've been "none".

Props for admitting it. These people are scumbaggish enough, no need to make things up.

Okay, now compare "Campaigned with the daughter of a war criminal" to "Is a war criminal rapist felon con man with dementia." You're arguing that "Not a good look" is worse than "Possibly the actual Anti-Christ."

You shouldn't assume that everyone who criticizes Kamala Harris' actions during the campaign supported Trump or didn't vote. That'd make you just as tribal and reactive as Trump supporters.

[–] Red_October 1 points 2 months ago

Either you voted for Harris or you didn't. This isn't tribal or reactive, this is a basic understanding of how the election works.
