Yup. According to polls, the number one reason people abstained or voted third-party was Biden/Harris handling of Gaza. It’s either an ignorant or arrogant choice, depending on their awareness of Trump’s sociopathy and unwavering support of Netanyahu.
It wasn’t a small downward shift though. It was greater than the amount Harris lost by if you count the increase in third-party votes.
Only an American could describe opposition to genocide as "ignorant or arrogant"
There was no opposition to genocide. That would be the ignorant justification.
The choice was between genocide, and genocide with fascism. Knowing that, and choosing to do nothing so you feel better, is arrogant.
I know people with disabilities caused by police responses to our fight against genocide.
Genocide apologist, beg for forgiveness.
