It's a bad thing if everyone has different criteria for "purity".

"Sure, it's great this guy is anti-genocide, but he once voted to restrict abortion rights".

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The criteria is "don't support a fucking genocide" and clearly enough people agree on it that it cost her the fucking election, either that or we're a minority with no impact in which case it's not our fault dems lost anyway lol

Let's hope your future memories of all your LGBT and non-white "friends" dying in the American Holocaust don't keep you up at night pal

Will the memory of Palestinians dying keep you up at night? Or do you only care about people you personally know?

Don't hide behind vulnerable minorities like your wing of the party doesn't throw them under the bus every chance it gets.

Lol I'm trans dumbass, you don't get to use my own identity and oppression to guilt me into voting for your dogshit party

Oh I see, you're just that much of a self-righteous dumbass that you've sealed your own fate. Good for you

I'm not willing to trade innocent lives for my own comfort and safety, you're more than happy to be complicit in a genocide as long as there are no consequences for you

And Trump is better than Kamala in this regard ... How exactly? No really, how. Because it sounds to me like you made this decision to make yourself feel better, not actually to contribute to the lessening of the genocide

He's not and nobody here said otherwise, what I'll be more than happy to say over and over again is that Kamala Harris did more to put Trump in office than every protest and third party voter combined, and that anyone making excuses for her or blaming voters for her dogshit campaign is a morally bankrupt moron
