    Fuck the genocide. We have a real crisis at home now because people put another country ahead of ours.

      I would hope that someone else would do the same for me. We are all humans together, national barriers are a fiction made up by those who want to oppress you.

      Again, I agree as I voted for Harris. But the real villains are the people with actual power who made consequential decisions that fucked us all.

        I agree with you on that. They rolled right over before it was even bedtime on election night.

        Aside from what Byremeister said (which was spot on) when the choice is save minorities at home, I will always vote yes.

        I think they are saying that they would begrudgingly vote for a candidate that may not fit their views or morals entirely in consideration of a historically complex and volatile situation going on in a different country that would continue regardless of the election here, in order to prevent a worse situation from forming there, and prevent a fascist regime from taking hold in their own country.

        On a related note, who did you vote for?

          I begrudgingly voted for Harris, but i understand why millions of people that voted for Biden in 2020 didn’t vote for her. The system is inherently broken and Harris was offering to keep things the same. Until the Dems try to actually earn votes, not just be the default, they will continue to eat shit in elections.

            She was an idiot for making it appear she was going to keep things the same, but I doubt she would have. She was basically looking at “more people than ever before in any election ever voted for Biden” and he’s decaying and I need his voter base to win, so she didn’t want to speak poorly of him

            Edit: for info, Biden had almost $4 million more votes in 2020 than Trump in 2024 while the population grew by 6 million people. Meaning as much as the GOP is selling that Trump did historic things in voting, Biden was vastly more popular than Trump

            Throw in: percentage wise, Biden beat Trump in 2020 more than 3x as bad as Trump beat Harris in 2024. Yet they call it a historical or “huge” win
