I met a guy in a bar, and they asked me why the democrats lost (we don’t live in the US)
I replied with something along the lines of “because they didn’t condemn the genocide in Gaza” and they responded with “isn’t that hypocritical? The left claims to be against antisemitism”
I tried to explain the usual antizionism isn’t antisemitism, but before I finished they responded with “but we have to give the [antisemitic slur] something”
I had to leave for my turn on the karaoke, but after that they came up to me apologizing and explaining how they hate both sides
I don’t want to live in a shitty web comic
That was the wrong answer anyway, majority of Americans don’t give a shit about Palestinians.
The deciding factor in the presidential election was really just inflation, wasn’t it? Just a bunch of bozos thinking that the president has a big lever labeled “economy” and that if the economy does poorly under Team Blue that they should try Team Red instead, and then when the economy does poorly under Team Red they should try Team Blue again. Aiding and endorsing genocide certainly lost Harris a large number of votes, but it was not the single determining factor. This is at least one analysis I heard which made sense to me.
