    If centrists don’t like that they don’t get 100% of everything they want, in this case unconditional support for genocide, they can vote blue no matter who.

      I’m not sure you even understood my comment. And yet at least 10 other people read this and were like “yup, that sounds right.”

      Suspect.

        They’re a troll. Somehow everyone who disagrees with them even slightly is a centrist who wants the war to happen.

          Somehow anyone who disagrees with the genocide even slightly must be a trumper in all cases.

            If you’re not voting Harris, you’re a Trump supporter, yes. Regardless of how you feel about it, that is literally just how our voting system works. We all need to push for a system where third parties matter, but until that actually happens, please live in reality.

              And I am voting Harris. No reason for any of you to start paying attention to this now, though. You have your single talking point and you’re going to repeat it regardless of the actual positions of the person you’re talking to.

              If it’s not the case, maybe centrists can come up with a new thing to say to people who disagree with genocide.

        People generally have really poor reading comprehension. I’ve been surprised by how bad it is here on lemmy. I’ve had folks argue against things not even remotely close to what was said, and then other morons will come along to dogpile.

          people are scanning, it happens, done it myself. the problem is people are so scared of harris losing they’re attacking people who have no interest in supporting harris as a result of this issue and think that will somehow get them to vote harris. shrug

          if harris loses she loses and thats on her. she wants to play the law and order candidate while simultaneously not committing to upholding the laws we have on the books and enabling a genocide well thats on her.

          Can’t help that shes committing the same errors of judgement that biden did and we didn’t support him either after he started breaking strikes and enabling genocide.

            The people you describe attack Harris voters too. They attack anyone with misgivings about genocide support.

        I’m not sure you even understood my comment.

        No, I did. You were saying that her hands are tied because the pro-genocide centrist wing of the party is so fickle that they will stay home or vote Trump if Harris starts disagreeing with you about genocide.

        So, if centrists don’t like that they don’t get 100% of everything they want, in this case unconditional support for genocide, they can vote blue no matter who.

        Now make up some more conspiracy bullshit about me running a botnet of sockpuppets or whatever it is you do when you can’t accept that more than one person is opposed to genocide.

          the pro-genocide centrist wing of the party

          Yeah that’s where I’m gonna stop reading.

          Have a nice week.
