    “genocide supports” 🙄 Guess you are too then if you voted for Harris?

    Here’s your reality - nothing you or I did was going to stop Israel. Full stop. I’ve simply decided that since it’s going to happen anyway I should do what I can to maximize other results for good. That’s not “supporting genocide” you simpleton.

      I would have preferred that she stop agreeing with you and supporting genocide.

        What is with your “you support genocide” bs though? Do you think it’s some clever “gotcha”? You’ve said it to practically everyone.

          You don’t support genocide? Then why are you still carrying water for candidates that did? The election is over.

              I mean, you won’t admit that Biden should have stopped sending weapons to Netanyahu, and that Harris should have put some daylight between herself and Biden regarding the genocide you totally don’t support.

                  Ain’t seen you do it yet. And you had a lot more opportunity than just the one hour you gave me before smugly posting “crickets”.

                    Oh, I get it now. You’re super butt hurt over that.

                    The “crickets” was in reply to

                    So tell us, what was the realistic option that would have halted the genocide?

                    Not because you hadn’t answered, but that there is no answer and leftists won’t simply say “there was no good option so I picked the least bad one”. And then they accuse everyone else of “supporting genocide” which you have done.

                    But you did vote for Harris, so congrats on supporting genocide too.
