    I’ve seen many: ‘feel free to vote 3rd party, its okay to not support a genocidal candidate’ very few ‘dont vote or you support genocide’ are you sure you’re reading peoples posts correctly?

      Same thing. The fact that most of these accounts, very similar to your own, are new accounts speaks volumes.

        its really not. ever heard of the saying: ‘its the journey, not the destination?’ maybe you should just try putting an ounce of effort into not supporting a genocide. even if that just means lieing to a pollster about your support for harris. make her sweat a little. maybe even at the end of the day change her position.

        trust me its pretty easy. I’m doing putting that ounce in right now. emailing my critters, casting my 3rd party vote, dealing with you twits who are blinding running off a cliff for fear of trump and enabling a genocide in the process. I don’t expect you to go as far I do but thats okay. I dont mind if you vote for harris. I mind that she supports genocide. I mind she doesn’t support labor. I’m willing to sacrifice some of those things to avoid trump. but I’m not willing to leave her unbloodied while she supports a genocide.

        We’re not responsible for harris’ genocidal positions. she is. she chose this. she can also not chose it. we’ll welcome her back to the family when she does.

        is it though? would you be in such a panic over the issue if people like me were not doing what we’re doing? no? would harris be suffering in the polls and struggling if not for us telling everyone exactly what we’re going to do and why?

        Would they have bothered trotting out bernie to ‘reason with us’? you know what harris needs to do to get our votes. the question is are you so callous that you’d support a genocide instead of telling harris and the DNC to stop being shit stains? the vote are here she just needs to take them.

        there isnt anything for you to fear if you reach out and embrace your arab and jewish brothers and sisters. why are you trying so had to enable a genocide when you can just… not. you can still vote for harris in the end if you really want, I dont mind. its your vote. but couldn’t you just… try? even a little bit? maybe lie to a pollster about your support, email your critters daily this week? maybe follow through and vote 3rd party or leave the president blank if you’re in a 20+ blue state.

        We’re not responsible for harris’ genocidal positions. she is. she chose this. she can also not chose it. we’ll welcome her back to the family when she does.
