      “Hold your nose and vote for Harris!”

      “Anybody who doesn’t vote for Harris is an idiot!”

      If I were American, I’d vote Trump just to spite people like you. I imagine many will do exactly that. You can’t talk down to people and expect them to support your side.

        I think it stems from the liberal mentality of everyone else just being a single West Wing style speech away from completely changing their mind and becoming a liberal. To a liberal everyone else is just “ignorant” and they are the enlightened ones. They can’t even imagine that someone who disagrees with them actually has reasons to do so, they’re just “ignorant” according to liberals.

      What are the social mechanics of funding, arming, and providing political and international cover for genocide?

      If you’re willing to support a genocide to avoid Trump, you’ve already lost. You’ve become what you started out fighting against. Genocide is the worst thing people can do to one another and you’ve compromised yourself all the way down to that.

      You’ve allowed a political party to convince you that genocide is acceptable.
