    I really don’t want you people to have to find out the hard way just how fucking stupid all of this anti-Harris shit is so close to the election.

    Because that would mean that millions of Palestinians would be killed when the current genocide is turned up to 11 after President Trump gives Netanyahu a blank check. I really don’t want that. Stop trying to get Trump elected please.

    Then stop serving Trump. You can’t be against any of the things he stands for, including genocide, if you’re trying to swing this election in his favor.

    Abstaining from voting for Harris in a swing state is tantamount to a half vote for Trump.

    Can someone explain this logic to me? Why is a vote for not-Harris also a vote for Trump, but a vote for not-Trump isn’t a vote for Harris? If I’m not voting for either of them, shouldn’t it break even?

      He’ll if you’re not voting for either of them that actually means you’re voting for the other one twice meaning you cast two ballots.

      Why are libs so against democracy they insist on only voting 50% as much as possible.

      I’m starting to think they might have some flaws in their logic.

      Also this goes both ways right? He’s giddy to rub it in non harris voters face when the genocide is still happening. That means if she wins and the genocide keeps happening we get to rub it in their face and they’ll admit we’re right, right?

      No? They’re just going to keep saying we don’t understand how politics wo4ks even though we were right and they were wrong for the 50th consecutive time? Damn…

      ELECTORALISM

      If you were going to vote D but then switch to R, that’s a two vote swing (one less for D, one more for R). If you were going to vote D but instead simply don’t vote, that’s only a one vote swing. One is half of two. One, notably, is not one half, but they’re pretty close
