I voted for the genocide supporter you wanted me to instead of the genocide supporter you are ok with because it gives you an excuse to blame the left.

I would have preferred that Harris had changed for the better instead of doing what you wanted and courting your buddies on the right.

Jesus, do centrists EVER stop fucking lecturing? Do you EVER stop being a giant scold to anyone who dares to want better?

What does this even mean? I wanted you to vote for Harris. Did you vote for Harris? You also say something about my "buddies on the right", so do you think I wanted you to vote for Trump, and therefore you voted for Trump? I wish you'd speak more directly instead of throwing in all these ambiguous assumptions.

Assuming you voted for Harris, it sounds like we are actually on mostly the same page. I voted for Harris. You voted for Harris (I think? I wish you would just give straight answers). Everyone should have voted for Harris. But Harris wasn't good, we deserve better, and I want to see better.

I also would have preferred that Harris had changed for the better. Why do you assume that isn't what I wanted? Who are my "buddies on the right"? I don't have any right-wing friends that I'm aware of.

It's a shame that you have to go making an ass out of yourself by jumping to all sorts of unfounded assumptions about who I am or what I think. If you would just engage honestly this would be a lot easier.

You seem all upset and lashing out at anyone who bothers to engage with you. Take a step back and go touch some grass or something.
