If you look into the trolley problem you'll see that you voted for more dead kids not less.

You pretend the campaign was stuck on rails, unable to steer away, but Harris could have and should have steered away from running everyone over. But she chose the direction, didnt she. So itt was never a trolley problem. Thats just a poorly constructed, self serving metaphor.

You're arguing about the color of the trolley after it's been covered in blood.

The choice was between a hard fight back to the left with an ally, or regressive accelerationism disguised by lies as "change".

You made your choice, enjoy your fucking blood.

And nobody can say that they didn't know, as I know I probably lost a year of my life repeating the same arguments over and over again to people. pleading with them to vote for Harris.

I am not a Liberal. I'm not the biggest fan of the Democratic Party. I am also not a fucking moron, and I have a firm grasp on geopolitical history.

I would like it if people stopped generalizing that all leftists are idiots who sat out or voted third party.
