    Fun fact: I never did those things, so I’m not sure why that’s relevant. I said I disagree with non-voters, but I understand where they are coming from. I think they still should be voting.

    Instead of voting for the party that was at least amenable to curbing Israel, was amenable to continuing aid, they indirectly supported the fascist that literally said he wanted to pave Gaza & build resorts.

    Amenable? They openly and explicitly said they were going to keep backing Israel no matter what. In fact, they chose to lose the election instead of give up support for genocide.

    I wish I had the day I voted for. I voted for housing and healthcare for all, taxing the rich, and defunding war. Instead we have Trump, because the Democrats wanted money, power, and genocide instead of fighting for their citizens.

      LOL, your argument is with math, not me.

      I hope you have the day you voted for.

        Math has nothing to do with it. My argument is against a political party that screws over it’s voting base. I don’t see how math fits into that.

        Again, I wish I had the day that I voted for as well, but I’m not going to get it because of said political party.

          Depressing to see so many liberals still utterly refusing to understand the point. It’s like ‘you voted for this’ is stuck on loop in their head and they can’t comprehend conversation with someone that doesn’t apply to.

            Yeah, I understand their frustration. I think many of them are blinded by anger. And I think they should be angry, but I think they are angry at the wrong people. Instead of being angry at people who vote against things like genocide, they should be angry at their political leaders for running in support of unpopular things like genocide.
