    And every non-voter who’s “high road” they dichtomously make fun of Obama for has allowed more genocide is what, better? The choices were some genocide or more genocide, avoiding the choice is just a choice for more genocide. Trolley on way to kill 5 people do you pull the lever to kill 1 or don’t pull the lever and let it kill 5. Unsurprising that people will blame you for not pulling the lever and you’re upset that people did try and pull the lever.

      Yes but they should probably blame the guy that tied people to the track in the first place. I think most see it as scapegoating. Politicians dictate their own policies and you have to be very vocal about the ones that suck to be heard over the corporate money. Blaming voters gets you zilch in terms of change.

      I disagree. I don’t think we should support genocide at all, full stop, period. But I guess some folks are okay with a little genocide, as a treat

      You are litterally doing the thing that handed the country to fascists: you are a fascist enabler.

      If you continue to blame voters instead of those in power, you are supporting fascism, and we should ALL collectively recognize you as a fascist.

        Yeah, fuck me for thinking vote for the lesser evil and work towards better rather than let the greater evil win and then??? How dare I desire not to worry about gestapo throwing me in a hole for my skin color while I fight for better. Instead of fighting for better im just fighting to survive. Fucks sake.

          Lesser evil never leads towards better, it leads to worse. A small acceptable amount of evil allows for a larger evil the next time. 50+ years if that shit and here we are

          Yeah. Fuck you for that. Thinking like that blew the fucking election and handed the country to fascists. Thats what we’re saying. Accepting or advocating for lesser evil loses elections time and again. If you were advocating for that approach in 2023/4, the fascism is on you.

          Its the entire point we’ve been making since 2023.

            So what was your alternative then, genius? Did you vote for the fucking green party? You third party people pretend to be moral but you’re literally ejaculating at the chance to massively inflate your pathetic ego, meanwhile there are thousands of people in concentration camps all around the country because of your narcissistic bullshit.

            You are responsible for that and just like the magat trash you should be held accountable. You stabbed your own neighbors in the back in the name of a bunch of people you’ve never even met. Fucking traitor. Fucking narcissist.

              Move the fucking candidate to electable fucking positions you fucking dingus. You can’t move the fucking electorate. Period. Accept the reality of how elections work and fucking adjust accordingly shit-for-brains, instead of insisting a population vote for a candidate whose policies they don’t want.

              Blue MAGA did this to us you fucking moron. People who insisted that people just had to suck it up and fucking vote for genocide when instead they could have been insisting the candidate change her fucking position.

              It’s like you turds go through completely unwilling to accept the reality of how elections work. You just keep insisting that we have to rely on voter to just "do better when they never do.

              If you can’t accept that some people won’t vote for a pro genocide candidate,and that you lost the election by insisting people do so, you are why we are here.
