In response to your edit: I think I made it clear that I voted for Kamala but that it was expected that people would not vote to legitimize a government that was actively encouraging genocide, sometimes against their own people. That this somehow makes ME a hypocrite as a sticking point and not YOU for your fundamental inability to consider solidarity as a value is what makes this whole exchange laughable.

Oh cool, so now by them 'standing up' against the 'legitimization' of the government, we're in a better place to oppose it, right?

Oh, we aren't? We're actually worse off in terms of our ability to oppose the government? And disadvantaged demographics are going to suffer for the purity games of the privileged? Just like I said when you tried to pull this dogshit argument earlier in this argument?

Fucking lovely.

Solidarity is all-important when it's time to sabotage disadvantaged demographics, but it doesn't seem to matter one fucking whit when there's actually a chance to defend them. How curious.
