The administration claimed that blocking arms transfers would embolden Hamas — ignoring Israel’s genocidal slaughter.

    I agree with your sentiment wholeheartedly as long as you don’t sign off with “and that’s why I didn’t vote in 2024.”

    Well, I obviously didn’t say that so…

    I don’t see my point in your comment, and I won’t even add a nonsensical hypothetical that you didn’t say.

      Sometimes people add a “however I still voted for Harris” at the end of their comment to establish they’re not one of the dummies that uses your logic to stay home and not vote.

      I was trying to feel out whether that was how you felt, and add an explicit negative judgement of that kind of thinking for anyone who felt that way.

      I think not doing so is how you get applause from people who handed the election to Trump, kinda like how being a free speech advocate often collects nazi approval unless you explicitly denounce them.

        I’m going to start ending all of my posts with. “I’m not a flesh eating amoeba” because apparently we have to declare we aren’t ridiculous things now.

        You were lying about their position because you can’t defend your own.

                If you sign off your comment with “All Palestinians must die. I’m glad Biden has provided material support to Netanyahu’s genocide and look forward to Trump finishing the only thing I have ever loved,” I have to assume that it’s a sincerely held belief of yours.

                I couched my accusation in a hypothetical, so I get to pretend it’s not an accusation.
