      They voted for Hillary, because the party decided it was her turn and made everyone else drop out and endorse her.

        Doubtful. They’re the kind of people who say that Bernie is a shitlib and controlled opposition.

          IMHO it’s more like half of them. Bernie is a successful compromise between liberal and leftist voters.

          Now Bernie is endorsing Harris, but if he was someone’s compromise, then that compromise isn’t necessarily transitive to a more centrist candidate.

      We voted for him. The it was decided that a moderate progressive wasn’t something america was ready for so we needed to vote for girlboss warhawk thatcher or trump or third party if we wanted progress.

      I guarantee you that if you polled these morons they’d know next to nothing about Israel, or Palestine, their respective histories, or the conflict, or the players, or foreign policy, or the USAs influence in the region.

      These people got hooked on this conflict via tiktok, probably funded by Russian propaganda machines and are too stupid to realize it.

      A truly black and white, good VS evil war is actually raging right now in Ukraine, yet these morons are silent on that one. I wonder why 🤔

        Because we’re not arming the bad guys in that one genius. Russia is also a nuclear power and most people still don’t think MAD is a good idea if you’re suggesting we should be advocating for open warfare against russia.

          If you think the Israel conflict is a black and white affair then you are part of the moron group I’m talking about.

            Ah, so that’s why you’re surprised some people have a hard time supporting a candidate that wants to allow the genocide to continue.

            Impossible for people to have a conscience, it must be some sort of psyop.
