    You did vote for genocide though. You can tell yourself whatever it is that you think you need to hear in order to preserve your sanity, but you are directly, partly, responsible for what happens next.

    I hope you will be paying attention.

    And if Harris would have won, and if she would have nominated Mike Huckabee, and if she would have been doing the things that Trump is about to do in the coming months, I would be saying and feeling the same way about myself.

    It’s called being honest with yourself. You should try it sometime.

      Actually, if we are all in agreement that the two major parties both pushed genocide, then by me voting third party, I actually used two votes against genocide by not voting either for trump or kamala. Gee, lib math sure is fun.

        What is “lib math”?

        I do know that actual math shows that there were no third parties this election that had a mathematical chance to win. They were not on enough ballots.

        You threw your vote away, which, when fascism is on the ballot, is a vote for fascism. You are a fascist.

        But hey, whatever you need to tell yourself to sleep once you actually see the actual, tangible results of Trump’s win in Palestine coming this January.

          So all the Arab and Muslim Americans in Dearborn who withheld votes for kamala - you know, the ones who got tired of seeing their brothers and sisters blown to shit in Lebanon and Palestine - are they fascists?

          It’s cute watching you try to reconcile fascism in your country while following the exact historical blueprint that liberals always do when fascism comes knocking: punch left, blame minorities. I know which side you’ll be on when shit gets volatile. Textbook liberal naivety, with zero understanding of history or the conditions that lead to fascism.

            Yes, they unwittingly supported fascists. The ones who have since come out and admitted that they were fooled are not fascists.

            The rest, yes. They are. Sorry if that offends you or something.

            If you have a table with 10 people eating, and 9 of them are fascists: you have a table of 10 fascists.

            They thrive on useful idiots. It’s a vital aspect of taking and holding power.

            I’m not a fucking liberal, I’m just not deluded. Jesus fucking Christ, leftists are so insufferable. This is why we never get anything done. Bullshit infighting and purity tests.

            And it’s so easy for anyone with interest in destabilizing any possible opposition to what is essentially become a one-party state, to stir shit up.

            Just plant the seed, and watch the left eat itself like it always does.

              Tell me, how are we to address these Arab and Muslim American fascists? What’s the course of action for these fascists that didn’t vote for kamala?

        You voted for Donald Trump by throwing your vote away on a party that literally could not, mathematically, win.

          You threw your vote away by voting for Harris who literally could not, mathematically, win.

          If more people like you voted 3rd party they would have a chance but instead you insist on voting for dems who run terrible campaigns with candidates that no one wants.
