      People who proport to support Palestine, but advocate actions that allow a win for Donald “I’m the best king of Israel ever” Trump and his “Finish them” Israeli bomb-signing Republican party aren’t being honest with the people they’re debating with.

      It is utterly unprincipled republicanism when people PRETEND to care and then advocate allowing the fascist KKK racist maniac genocidal republican party to win.

        This post was reported. I think the objection would be to the second paragraph where it sounds like you are making a claim about the character of the person.

        We want this to be an inviting place where people can share what they are passionate about. Everyone is free to attack each other’s opinions and stances. However, there are rules against attacking individuals and groups of people.

        Not only is it against the rules but there are much more effective methods of arguing. Ad hominem attacks are poor at persuasion.

        Do you mind rewriting the second paragraph to focus on the arguments made in the prior comment, rather than the character of the person?

        Except Trump is not the one currently in power and can’t do much, while Democrats are so I’m scrutinizing them for not doing anything about a genocide while in power. I obviously don’t want Trump to win but I hate this idea you have that someone is automatically a Trump supporter for not actively and unconditionally supporting Democrats and condemning non-voters, uncommitted, and third party voters.

          I hate this idea that it’s somehow principled to allow the fascist to win. How can you tell the difference between a right wing troll trying to let their KKK supporting maniac destroy America, Palestine and Ukraine, and a left wing person with principled objections who wants to vote against Harris? You can’t. They’re advocating the same actions with the same outcomes. I can’t tell which you are, but please wake up to the real world or shut up trolling people who actually care.

            hate this idea that it’s somehow principled to allow the fascist to win.

            i hate to break it to you, but the secret service is allowing him to win. the democrat-run justice department is allowing him to win. you are allowing him to win. you could stop him. but you don’t really believe he’s a threat. you’re just berating people who won’t join your team.
