    Well if you live in a swing state, you deserve it for plunging my homeland into fascism. Have a mediocre day!

      I love how Libs always try to blame others for their mistakes.

      “If you didn’t vote for the party that bombs kids, supports rapists, and backed a genocide, it’s because you actually like fascism!”

      This is why the term BlueMAGA works so well: Because Libs can’t see their own cultish hypocrisy, even when it’s staring at them in the mirror.

      I didn’t plunge anybody’s homeland into fascism. It’s just that you’d just rather punch left than blame the people actually responsible.

      There have been many times throughout history where people have considered genocide as acceptable to prevent a greater evil. Every single one of them was wrong.

      “If the enemy is at the gates, we need to round up and exterminate anyone of their race, because if they open the gates to them, they’ll kill us all. The lesser evil is for just some people to die.” That is the level of morality that you’re operating on. Go ahead and lecture me on what kind of day I “deserve,” as if willingness to sacrifice the lives of innocents is somehow a moral virtue and not a sign of your spinelessness and depravity.

        Sorry, but you helped. You decided that your morality was more important than your efficacy. One day you will grow up and regret your decisions like I did. Sorry.

          Harris decided that supporting genocide was more important than keeping Trump out of office, but for some weird reason, I’m guessing we won’t hear you blame her.

          Sorry, but you helped.

          Well then, you’re welcome. Because if I “helped” Trump get elected, then by the exact same logic I “helped” Biden get elected, and you can rest assured that I will be “helping” your favorite genocidal warmonger next time.

          You decided that your morality was more important than your efficacy.

          Yes, obviously. That’s what having morals means. Do you believe it is morally wrong to have morals? Because you might want to examine the very obvious logical contradiction there.

          One day you will grow up and regret your decisions like I did.

          If I knew that I would wake up tomorrow thinking that, I would kill myself tonight, without hesitation.

          One day, perhaps, you will grow up and realize the true extent of what you’re supporting. It’s only possible for you to think the way you do because of your blissful ignorance of what your people are doing on the other side of the wall.

            “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good [people] to do nothing.”

            You’re doing nothing, and there’s nothing conscientious or moral about it. I hope you develop a stronger will to live before this truth sinks in.

              Its so funny that you people think the only thing that can be done is to vote. Its even more funny that you dont see how you’re actively helping “evil”.

                I never said voting was the only thing you could do, but it is one important thing you should always do. By all means, participate in your local DSA chapter, call your congresscretins daily, write letters (preferably by hand), knock on doors, donate money, volunteer with whatever organizations you want.

                But also vote strategically. Elections have consequences.

                  I kind of figured you weren’t the brightest, but its still surprising to me you dont understand how people draw conclusions from your statements. You respond to someone talking about not voting with a quote about doing nothing. Thus it is safe to conclude voting is the only thing to do.

                  But also vote strategically. Elections have consequences.

                  Yes, and thats why I wont vote for genociders.

                    So you inferred something I didn’t say or imply and then got mad about it? Huh. Sounds stupid.

                    There are only two possible votes in a general election. All the options are a variant on not participating. In your case, it’s not participating and masturbating in front of a mirror to yourself. (Gross!) Your inability to vote strategically has been disastrous for civilians in Gaza, Lebanon, Iran, Qatar, Saudi, etc.

              “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good [people] to do nothing.”

              It’s insane that this is actually the second time in my life that someone has tried to twist and bastardize that quote to try to justify the invasion of Afghanistan. The other was a Trump voter.

              “Evil triumphing” is when hundreds of thousands of civilians get murdered. “Doing nothing” is when you refuse to lift a finger oppose the people responsible. What the two of you fail to understand is that you are the evil that triumphs when good people do nothing. And what you do is even worse than nothing, because you actively support them

                Being a keyboard warrior on a site nobody uses isn’t “doing something.”

                I think I’ll help end the genocide you’ve enabled by sending $25 to ActBlue on your brother’s behalf.

                  I never claimed that it was.

                  Don’t stop there. I also enabled the Holocaust and helped Hitler gain power by virtue of sitting on my ass instead of inventing a time machine and going back to stop him. If you go back and donate $25 to Mussolini on behalf of the victims of the Holocaust, my horrible crime could be undone.

                  I will say, by the way, that my brother is by far the most far-right person I know, like OAN and shit. Donating on ActBlue “on his behalf” is funny enough that I kind of want you to just for the bit.
