I agree with your sentiment wholeheartedly as long as you don't sign off with "and that's why I didn't vote in 2024."
Millions of people did exactly that, and so now we get Trump again.
Its pointless to point fingers now but that seems to be why you post. I think you need validation that what you did was the "right" thing. Even if it meant abandoning all your principles, and the lower and middle class in the process. Well I'm here for you buddy. Let me be the robin to your batman:
Yes! You are soo right redditrefugee69!! if it werent for literally every demographic of voter except college educated whites, Kamala would have won! damn them all! The minorities are the bane of our existence! And what happened to all those republicans who we worked so hard on? How dare they turn their backs on a Cheney! We had a cheney republican and a "liberal" dem up there, that should have covered all the bases!
Do you know the worst of the minorities who turned their back on dems? it was Native Americans!! Lets talk about how evil and bad they are!!
/s
Yeah, just glancing at the bottom of your comment pretty well cements reading it would be a waste of time.
Thanks for nothing.
Well, I obviously didn't say that so...
I don't see my point in your comment, and I won't even add a nonsensical hypothetical that you didn't say.
Sometimes people add a "however I still voted for Harris" at the end of their comment to establish they're not one of the dummies that uses your logic to stay home and not vote.
I was trying to feel out whether that was how you felt, and add an explicit negative judgement of that kind of thinking for anyone who felt that way.
I think not doing so is how you get applause from people who handed the election to Trump, kinda like how being a free speech advocate often collects nazi approval unless you explicitly denounce them.
I'm going to start ending all of my posts with. "I'm not a flesh eating amoeba" because apparently we have to declare we aren't ridiculous things now.
When there are literally millions of people who believe something, it's not stupid to establish you agree with most but not all of what they believe.
You can be a jackass about it if you want, though.
Just an FYI there brother, he ain't the one coming off as an asshole in that Exchange.
That's a very nice opinion you have there. It's a shame I don't agree with it.
Go back to reddit.
Likewise! Seems like you belong there more than I do.
You were lying about their position because you can't defend your own.
Where did I lie about their position?
Holy shit are you actually that bad at reading comprehension that you think I said they said that?
If you sign off your comment with "All Palestinians must die. I'm glad Biden has provided material support to Netanyahu's genocide and look forward to Trump finishing the only thing I have ever loved," I have to assume that it's a sincerely held belief of yours.
I couched my accusation in a hypothetical, so I get to pretend it's not an accusation.
My sides are in orbit due to the hilarity in your writing mistakes while trying to criticize my writing.
Can't argue against substance? Make vague insults about form.
We get Trump again because of what the previous commenter said, not you.
