    It isn’t going to matter: The genocide in Israel became simultaneously an issue large enough to decide an election and yet small enough to ignore as a political issue.

    The argumentation swings both ways as needed.

      How ironic considering that the entire argument you continually put forward is that the genocide in Israel is simultaneously an issue large enough to decide an election, yet small enough to evade any responsibility for deciding an election.

      Of course, I’m not sure what else should be expected from someone who plays apologist for Ukrainian genocide while pretending to decry Palestinian genocide.

        The issue was always large enough to impact the election by causing low turnout and abstention across the electorate.

        The protest and third party voters, who turned out and did not abstain, were small enough not to decide the election.

        This isn’t rocket surgery like hating waffles.

          Yes, which resulted in the fascist victory we are now ‘enjoying’. Thank you for agreeing with the point I was making. I mean, sure, you had to play your usual bullshit games first, but what’s a ZombiFrancis comment without carrying water for literal fascists?

          Good thing the source I provided was talking largely about abstainers, but that would require actually reading the source instead of projection.
