  • I really don't care if some communist thinks I support genocide. I don't, but go ahead and think that I do. But are you really gonna condemn me for trying to save some lives? I could have bitched and moaned and joined the 3% who voted third party or the 40% who didn't vote at all, but I'm not so naive as to think that would help anything

    Edit: I decided there was a better way to respond to the comment, and my edit went through after they replied. My original comment read

    Do you think Palestinians will fare better under Trump than they would have under Harris?

    • If you voted for people that was funding and condoning genocide, you also condone that genocide.

      • If you see an ongoing genocide, and decide that you would rather see it get worse than try to mitigate it, you also condone that genocide. The difference between us is that I want fewer people dead, and you apparently want more

        • I wanted none, which is why I was not willing to support the ones that was actively allowing them to get killed. Democrats were terrified of what Trump *might *do while having their head up their ass with what their party was actually doing.

          • I wanted none too, but we both know that wasn't an option. The choice was between more or less, and you thought "eh, we can't have none, so either works for me." You may pretend to have very strong feelings about it, but unless you're planning on doing something really based within the next couple days, strong feelings are indistinguishable from apathy.

            Again I ask the question I've asked so many times since november: do you actually think the Palestinian people will fare better under Trump than they would have under Harris?

            • That question is pure speculation. What we do know is Harris saw them as acceptable deaths to achieve whatever end game Netanyahu wanted.

              • That question is pure speculation

                If we can't speculate as to how a presidency will go, then I guess you have no problem with trump voters. After all, any questions about his presidency are, at present, pure speculation. For all we know, he could institute full blown communism day one!

                Get real. You know Trump is worse for Palestine, and you're desperate to convince yourself that you did anything to help.

                • And I bet you thought you did good by voting for a Democrat that is committing genocide while denying that it's actually occurring

                  • Damn sight better than if I'd not voted at all. I've already explained to you that the only options were less death and more death, and unlike you, I think more death is worse

                    • And I'm sure the families of the dead that you determine are acceptable find great peace in your decision

                      • For the record, I don't find any death acceptable. That's why I tried to mitigate it as much as possible. You apparently do find more death acceptable, or else you would have voted

                        You saw the trolley careening towards the 5 people, and instead of pulling the lever to make it hit the 1, you said "I don't think anyone should be run over by trolleys." Like yeah, I agree, but that trolley is still gonna run a bunch of people over, so maybe pull the lever anyway
