      I described what the Democrats did. If you find that to be rage baiting, I think that says more about your misplaced values than anything else.

        My point is that it is not a Democrat or Republican thing. It’s an America problem.

        Your argument makes as much sense as saying you won’t vote for a Democrat because they breathe air.

        You are creating a false dichotomy.

        If you actually used valid arguments or were interested in an actual discussion, then maybe most of the internet community wouldn’t think y’all were a bunch of propagandist spewing idiots.

        Doesn’t help there seem to be on 3 arguments among you, that you keep on repeat.

          Of course it’s an American thing. That’s why I think its silly to keep blaming the people who are trying to stop it, instead of blaming the people who do those things. If you think bombing kids is as casual as “breathing air”, I guess you really are more American than I thought.

          What false dichotomy? It seems pretty clear to me that those things are bad, but you called them “good”.

          If being against child bombing, rape, torture, and genocide makes me a “propoganist spewing idiot”, I’ll wear that with pride. I find it pretty important to keep it on repeat, because people like you seem to keep conveniently forgetting about it.

            Right, there it is.

            "It’s because I don’t want kids getting bombed "

            Yeah, no fucking shit, no one wants that and you think somehow not voting for a Democrat somehow advanced that goal?

            I hated Kamala as a candidate, she was terrible and yeah I hated that she was a supporter of Israel, and I agree that supporting Israel is synonymous with supporting genocide.

            But the argument you KEEP posting implies that you think your agenda was somehow advanced by not voting for Kamala is ludicrously stupid.

            But your last comment, you just tried to put words in my mouth, acted deliberately obtuse, and tried to change the narrative.

            I don’t have all the answers and don’t pretend to, but at least I’m not dishonest.

              Well, a lot of people want it, because they keep voting for it. I don’t see how voting for the people who bomb kids is going to stop them from bombing kids. In fact, it’s pretty clear that encourages it.

              I hated Kamala as a candidate, she was terrible and yeah I hated that she was a supporter of Israel, and I agree that supporting Israel is synonymous with supporting genocide.

              Then why are you defending her?

              But the argument you KEEP posting implies that you think your agenda was somehow advanced by not voting for Kamala is ludicrously stupid.

              No, I never implied that at all. The best opportunity I have when voting, is to send a signal saying “Nope, I don’t want this, and I’m not going to support it”, and then not supporting it. The Democrats know that their voters don’t want it, but will keep supporting it, so they keep doing it. In fact, they’ve been pretty clear that they’d rather lose to Trump than listen to their voters.

              But your last comment, you just tried to put words in my mouth, acted deliberately obtuse, and tried to change the narrative.

              So now quoting you is “putting words in your mouth” ? I’m not sure how that works. You are the one that brought up the word “propoganda”, I’m not sure how that’s me trying to change the narrative.

              I don’t have all the answers and don’t pretend to, but at least I’m not dishonest.

              How is pointing out that the Democrats do those evil things “dishonest” ?
