    “The most consequential election in our country, a choice between Fascism and Democracy, and you sit out? Cowards. Unethical, fearful cowards,” wrote one reader.

    Haha, yep.

        You are worse than both, because you’re insulting them which in turn undermines your own goals.

          “Hahahaha don’t you see that by being mildly mean to those sitting idle while fascism takes hold you were in fact just as bad?”

          That’s how you sound.

            If you really want Harris to win, and you’re working hard to help make that happen, I totally respect your efforts. But your actions are an obvious attempt to alienate potential voters. Why would they want to associate with someone like you, who treats them with disdain? Of course they wouldn’t.

            So then there’s an obvious question. Which is more important to you, Harris winning the election or trash talking people you dislike? I know what it looks like, because we can all read what you wrote, but how do you feel?

          Your comment would have more weight if we lived in a country with parliamentary or ranked choice elections. But we don’t.

            Nothing I wrote depends on parliamentary or ranked choice elections. Perhaps you were replying to the wrong comment?
