    And yet everyone voted for a rich, racist, rapist, pedophile who can barely speak and also supports genocide anyway.

          Or the people who had to work, or couldn’t wait for 3h at their neighborhood polling place, or have disengaged from politics for any number of reasons, or were educated here and earnestly didnt know how important this last election was.

          Low voter turnout is an inevitable symptom of a corrupt system.

          That part is not because of the white rapist, but because of the bad candidate that were forced on them as an alternative.

        My point is that the people who try to justify not voting for Harris due to her support of genocide achieved nothing.

        Do you seriously think Trump gave less weapons to Israel? Do you think he did a better job of keeping a muzzle on Bibi?

        They might think they didn’t sully their soul, but they did. Refusing to choose the lesser of two evils isn’t a moral win. It’s just allowing the worse evil to win.

          Well… K? You can keep getting mad about an overwhelming and likely irrelevant minority, but can you keep it for when it’s actually relevant?
