Summary

Key leaders of the “Abandon Harris” movement, which encouraged voters to oppose Kamala Harris due to U.S. support for Israel during the Gaza war, are now expressing unease about Trump’s incoming administration.

Many in the movement, including prominent Muslim leaders, voted for Trump hoping he would bring peace to the Middle East.

However, concerns are growing over his Cabinet picks, such as Mike Huckabee and Tulsi Gabbard, which some see as troubling for Muslim communities.

    You got called out for being a Nazi.

    right back at you pal. Go ahead and throw your temper tantrum, but know that come 2028

    won’t happen. you guys seriously don’t fucking get it do you? I can’t even imagine being so shortsighted that I can’t even see what the fuck is happening in the next six weeks.

    either way, start acting like you’re in a coalition, because thats reality whether you like it or not.

    I’ve always, ALWAYS, held firm that the US should be a protector of the disenfranchised or unprotected. after this election I realized I was wrong.

    We don’t have to do anything of the sort. My charity is empty. My sympathy is gone. At this point, I’m focused 100% on fixing America and American interests.

    If people in some far off land have to die so that we can give LGBTQA+ people a place to feel safe so be it.

    If non-Americans have to die to protect the interests that empower America so that my kids can grow up in prosperity I will vote to kill them every single time now.

    Make no mistake, it’s not out of a sense of national pride. it’s not from a source of hatred or prejudice. I will protect my national interests because I have been given no other choice but to impose American authority because American ideals are being eroded and attacked by those who beg for help.

    you’re drowning in a sea of hatred, and I refuse to let you take me with you.

    I don’t hate you, I just don’t care about you unless you’re American or support American interests.

    It was so bad that the mod, someone I would personally describe as a right wing Democrat, was pointing out that it was fascist speech.

    You did say:

    “If non-Americans have to die to protect the interests that empower America so that my kids can grow up in prosperity I will vote to kill them every single time now.”

    To which I respond “Well, if the jack-boot fits…”

    If you don’t want to be called a Nazi, you need to stop making fascist statements and this quote is LITERALLY fascist.

    You also weren’t trolling. That is a hilarious after the fact ego preserving rationalization.
