Everyone who voted third party still wouldn't have made Kopmala president.

Maybe instead of blaming the minority of people who have decency you blame the 80% of white men and 60% of white women who voted for Trump?

I mean, Kamala wanted to be trump so bad didn't she? Supporting israel, saying trump was too soft on the border, dunking on trans people, surely it's our fault for not voting for a ghoul.

Get over yourself.

I blame everyone who didn’t vote for Harris. They all contributed to Trump and his fascist takeover.

Gaza protestors were tricked into voting against their own best interest and that is a lesson that should be learned from instead of repeated.

But bad faith actors like yourself don’t care about Israel or Gaza. You are just trying to get less people to vote against fascism.

Bad faith actors? If you don't care about my people's plight for self determination why should I care about yours?

It's a two way street, the policy on Palestine didn't change between Biden or Trump. Maybe blame your own party for that.

You don’t care about “your people’s” plight as we can prove with Trump’s 2nd term.

Policy on Palestine definitely did change. Protestors are disappearing and Trump plans to own Gaza and much more.

This is the result of bad faith actors like yourself helping Trump get elected.

Keep lying to yourself. You're just as bad as the nazis. Blame your own parents for voting for trump, or your neighbors? Is punching down online your solution? Learn to tie a noose bro
