    Thank you for taking the time to write that.

    I generally agree the current system is broken, both sides have no interest in doing what’s best for humans.

    I came here not trying to convince anyone that Harris is good, but that Trump is worse.

    I read articles just yesterday about Trump talking to Netanyahu almost every day to undermine any talks that may have stopped Israel’s genocide.

    Between that and the fact that Trump is spouting fascist rhetoric, in my opinion, he is worse than Harris.

      You came here trying to get people to vote for kamala, stop this bullshit ffs.

      Between that and the fact that Trump is spouting fascist rhetoric, in my opinion, he is worse than Harris.

      The fact that you write this after the deluge of responses you’ve gotten shows you are in no way interested in a good faith discussion.

      I read articles just yesterday about Trump talking to Netanyahu almost every day to undermine any talks that may have stopped Israel’s genocide.

      “May have” my fucking god. It’s always this with you people. “Behind closed doors”, “suggested that”, “implied that”, “in the future might”, “could be”. When I pretend to throw a ball to fool my dog, it at least stops and looks back at me at some point. At least my dog is smart enough to realise it’s been tricked.
      Kamala is openly talking about increasing support to Israel. The government has just sent soldiers to Israel, they give them billions. You people keep saying Trump will genocide “worse”. There’s concentration camps and mass graves right now, it doesn’t get much worse. And do you understand what a genocide is? Do you understand what it’s purpose is? Extermination. I’m sure the people being murdered will be happy to hear it’s at the hands of a POC woman this time.
      When Trump bombed syria you were all out on the streets ready to fight the power. Now that Kamala is campaigning on doing more genocide all you can say is “but Trump”! They’re the same you massive ingrate

        “Behind closed doors”, “suggested that”, “implied that”, “in the future might”, “could be”

        Western realpolitik happens in secret meetings between Adults In The Room that Make The Hard Decisions and Get Shit Done. Mysteriously, that shit getting done continues to be war profiteering and mass murder and sometimes arranging vacations on specific islands epsteingelion

          At the same time you’re a silly conspiracy theorist for thinking the people in power with shared interests have secret meetings in dark rooms behind closed doors where they plan what they should do.

      None of this changes the undeniable fact that if you give your vote to Kamala Harris you are endorsing genocide.

      That’s what it all boils down to. You can’t wriggle your way out of this.

      I came here not trying to convince anyone that Harris is good, but that Trump is worse.

      And you also came in here with a concern troll mindset trying to cudgel people into participating in an electoral process that we fundamentally reject and that is why everyone is telling you to fuck off.

      Stop. Just fucking stop. You are insulting all of us and humiliating yourself.

      There is zero historical evidence to prove either one of these monsters will be “less bad” than the other. Voting for the lesser evil is still voting for evil. Harris forced trans women into mens prisons, is committed to building Trump’s wall, is committed to continuing to arm a genocidal apartheid state in the name of imperialism, is against giving us healthcare, is anti-union, will not protect abortion rights.

      All your arguments to vote for her have already been disproven so please just pipe the fuck down and if you want to hang around here stop this electoralism bullshit and start listening to people that know a metric fuckton more about how the world actually works than you clearly do.

      If I come across as aggressive it’s because I am and we are all sick and tired of hearing all this same shit from liberals.

      doing what’s best for humans.

      Every time someone injects “human” talk where it isn’t necessary it sounds Reddit-tier sus to me. It’s like when misogynists say “men and females.
