I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

    Kamala supporters should look in the mirror and ask themselves why they’re ok with their candidate enabling genocide

      why they’re ok with their candidate enabling genocide

      I don’t think this is a fair analysis of any real person’s position.

        May not be their mentality, but that is the reality when you show more contempt for those mad about said genocide enabling than for the figure you’re advocating for despite them enabling genocide

          It certainly isn’t. Victims of genocide are unaffected by any individual’s mindset. I fully agree with your position; I’m simply advocating for an exploration of that mindset to inform better future choices.

      She used the only power she had to try to negotiate a ceasefire. What you are saying simply isn’t factual.

      It was gazas best chance at actually existing. Also she was the only one with a chance at 270 electoral votes

      Your turn. Why did you vote for someone who couldn’t get to 270? Do you not realize you literally helped trump?

        Voting is not supporting and my state went blue so no I didn’t. Also that’s not relevant to the conversation at hand. The point is that she was a shitty candidate that supported genocide and mostly ran on not being Trump. But when people correctly point that out, many such as yourself get more angry at that person instead of the shitty candidate. What it feels like is you’re married to the dnc, and when someone accurately tells you that they’re abusive and they’re cheating on you, you shoot the messenger.

        No one is inspired to vote for the lesser evil. Be mad at the dnc for running a campaign of “we’re not going to help anyone but at least we’re not Trump” instead of actually trying to be good. Working people are your allies, not the elite trying to divide us with stupid electoralism.
