    Disgusting fawning over someone who is in full support of genocide. Vote for her if you want, but feel uplifted? Jesus Christ

      You have to be realistic. There are two sets of policies you can vote for. You are not allowed to mix and match. You must choose one set. Just cool your ego and choose the better set. It’s that simple. You may not like all of Harris’s policies, but it would be far more foolish to abstain.

        Just because you’re uplifted by the prospect of voting for someone who will continue unconditional arms sales to a genocidal regime, that doesn’t mean everyone who voted for Harris is.

        Some of us are disgusted and resent what the Democratic Party has done here.

          Where are you getting the premise that I enthusiastically condone Harris’s stance on Israel? I was careful to not leave any reason for that misinterpretation of my reply. I think you are intentionally mischararcterizing me as a genocide supporter. I only insist that the most sensible action now is to vote for the best overall candidate even if you can’t condone this particular position of theirs.

            Because instead of even attempting to understand the person you replied to, you lectured instead. They weren’t talking about not voting for Harris. They were talking about not being happy about it.
