They still put forth the mutually exclusive arguments, simultaneously. "Our protest couldn't have had an effect, so we totally didn't sacrifice American LGBT folk for a chance at saving Gaza" + "If the Dems had just given in to our protest, we would've voted for them and they would have won"

Both arguments are stupid on their own merits, but together, they paint a picture of intellectual and moral bankruptcy.

An average persons, such as all of us here, only ability to do anything about it was back in November, but y'all wanted to "teach the DNC a lesson at the polls" at the absolute worst fucking time

What are you even talking about, I and MANY others were right, everyday since the 20th has been a gold star example on how Trump is SO much worse. The article yesterday was literally Trump calling for a "total ethnic cleansing"

Not to mention all the additional people NOW under threat like the LGBTQ+ community.

Harris would have at worst kept the status quo, Trump is turning the dial to 11 on everything from Gaza to a recession to racism and transphobia. Good job though on your protest vote 👍

No, we wanted to end the genocide.

And how did that work out for y'all?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 5 days ago (15 children)

The Dems unilaterally decided that losing the election was less harmful than continuing to commit genocide

So it's your opinion that the protest vote against Palestinian genocide did make the difference between victory and defeat for the Trump regime?
