    But you still haven’t answered the question, who is the realistic non-genocise candidate we should have all voted for to prevent this? You’re so adamant that anyone who voted Harris loves genocide so much, so who was the non-genocide candidate that you, in your wisdom, voted for?

      Have you heard of a thing called Molotov? He was a famous cocktail artist

      That wasn’t the question, and this comes off as gloating that both major candidates agreed with you that we should have kept funding genocide.

      The question was:

      So tell us, what was the realistic option that would have halted the genocide?

      Which I answered. Biden should have adhered to the Leahy Law. That was a realistic option. I don’t know if it would have stopped the genocide, but we would no longer be complicit.

          The simplest obvious answer is against the Tos.

          Hint: it’s violence.

          They literally did, stop being a redditor who expects an instant reply for you to post on your basement corkboard of “internet arguments won 19374, arguments lost 0”.

          You didn’t get a reply in an hour and thought you won? Touch some grass.

            They literally did not. They were asked about who to vote for and dodged like leftists always do when asked that question. It’s not being principled - it’s being stupid.

              Crab has said they voted for Harris before. Never once changed their story. I also voted for Harris, in California.

              So what’s the goalposts now? Crab must dox themselves to prove they’re an adult in America?

                    “genocide supports” 🙄 Guess you are too then if you voted for Harris?

                    Here’s your reality - nothing you or I did was going to stop Israel. Full stop. I’ve simply decided that since it’s going to happen anyway I should do what I can to maximize other results for good. That’s not “supporting genocide” you simpleton.
