Acknowledging other political issues exist and are at play in this election != supporting genocide and the comparison is fucking stupid.

"in this election" dude this election has been happening since 67' and even before that. The cognitive disonance simply makes you revert to tribal politics and "my side being the only choice uga buga". You are supporting genocide by voting for a candidate that will support genocide and won't do anything about it, or worse will put their hand to it by exporting even more weapons to Israel. That's their policy - that nothing will change. They will "call for a two state solution" when people in Gaza are being displaced, killed in the thousands, their houses and hospitals being bombed regularly.

This is exactly your doing. You don't get a pass because "the other tribe is worse uga buga"

I don’t think Harris has a good stance on Gaza. You’re berating the wrong person.

I do think Harris has the best chance to improve the life of myself and my family.

Both of these ideas can exist. Confusing, I know.

Like you realize your particular style of rhetoric here doesn’t help anyone and just makes you look like a prick, right?

Who am I supposed to help? Explain that to me. You are going to vote for someone who enables genocide. I don't want to help you do that. That's on your conscience - explain it to yourself however you want if you can't live with the truth

Guess you’re in the same position as me, you can’t do anything to help.

You’re going to contribute to an outright fascist that wants to turn Gaza into a parking lot.

Live with that however you want 🤷‍♂️ Only difference is I’m not being a dick to you about it

Lmao you don't know me or what I do and what I don't do. Don't assume shit about people you don't know

gestures broadly to previous comments

So you support genocide?

I literally told you to not assume shit about people and there you go instantly assuming shit about people.

You don’t see the irony here do you?

There is no irony to be seen. You support a genocide enabler. End of story. I won't be replying to you anymore since you think you somehow have a moral highground when you are part of the problem.

I don’t think I have any kind of high ground. I do think you’re a bit of an idiot.
