Punching “left” at Trump voters sounds fine to me.
Didn't vote for trump and neither did almost anyone else who was talking about the genocide, but sure. Keep pretending
Talking about the genocide sounds great. Pretty much everyone on Lemmy who's into world politics has been doing that for a while.
What are the second, third and fourth words of this particular meme you're responding to, please?
The second third and fourth words are where you make up a strawman to tilt at.

Oh yes supporting your claim that they supported Trump by quoting somebody who doesn't live in America. Definitely proving you didn't just make up an imaginary person to be mad at.
Oh so now you know what the second third and fourth words are, and are upset that I missed them lol.
I’m done now, I just wanted to point out what a horrifying catastrophe is going to happen for the Palestinians now. Yes, even worse than the genocide which Biden wasn’t doing enough to fight back against for your liking. Not that I am in any way happy about it.
I realized what they were, I just think you're wrong. The point of the meme is to tar people who opposed genocide as trump supporters. Remember how all you centrists kept saying, "No but they have to support genocide because the election" well you lost the election and enabled genocide, and now you're trying to pin the blame on people who were against the genocide, but we did vote for her. So fuck off
No. The point of the meme is to tar specifically the people who came up with a particular backwards way of looking at the genocide issue into a reason to enable turbo-genocide, which is now on its way.
If you’re not one of them, then it’s not aimed at you, but you seem pretty triggered by it.
Except you're in this same thread talking about people post election saying that the dems flubbed it and again implying we're bots or paid Russian shills, and talking about how you're looking forward to people taking issue with this.
Also using triggered as an insult, scratch a lib as they say.
I never implied that you were either Russian or a bot. I definitely implied that there are some of those on Lemmy, elsewhere in my comments, I don't think that's in doubt though.
Now that I looked in your history, though, you did want to talk about Ukrainian war crimes, and you measured distance to your bus stop in kilometers. I wonder what percentage of American voters like you on Lemmy do both of those things.

That's from looking at 2 pages of history, maybe there's more further back.
Homie I spent like half an hour converting those from miles because the OP used Kilometers. Sorry for being a considerate poster. Go on and dig a little further, how many people do you think post this much about Michigan from Europe? Do you think maybe I'm this mad about Israel because I live and work among Palestinian immigrants? Do you think my proximity to Dearborn might have something to do with that?
May as well have though
~~A vote for Trump is a vote for trump~~
~~not voting is a vote for trump~~
A vote for Harris is a vote for trump 🤡
Ok then you're sure confusing if you choose to defend not voting for harris
If you think about it, since not voting for Harris is a vote for trump, not voting for trump would be a vote for Harris. By voting for Harris you're therefore casting one vote for Harris by merit of voting for her and a second vote for Harris by not voting for trump. Voting twice is illegal, so you're going to have to go to jail.
Sure /s
No /s, isn't not voting for my candidate identical to voting for another candidate? That's what I heard ad nauseum from lemmy democrats the entire election, anyway. If there's the barest indicator that you didn't vote exactly how I wanted you to you're literally a trumpet.
You're clearly intentionally misinterpreting something any child could understand. it's likely 100 people have tried to explain it to you by now. You're just pretending not to get it
was not voting for Harris a vote for trump or not?!?! I'm so confused.
I'm arguing against trying to pin the blame for an embarassing fuck up of a campaign on the people who saw this coming.
Sure, that's fair, but I'm all for blaming people who argued against trying to do even the bare minimum to avert it.
You helped Trump win, and I hope the results of the election personally hurt you in a very deep way.
Oh look, an obvious lie to deflect after being disingenuous. What a fucking surprise.
Trump is left, up is down, genocide is like totally cool.
