Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

How many times are pro-genocide fash-lite centrists going to ignore that I voted for their garbage pro-genocide candidate?
I voted for Harris. None of you care who anyone voted for. You just want everyone to shut up about the genocide that is the only thing centrists have ever actually fought for.
Interesting, based on what I have ready from you I suspect you and I are in agreement on most everything since you did actually pull the lever for harm reduction even though it made you sick. It made me sick in 2016 and 2020 when I did it. Before 2016 I had proudly never voted for a R or D at the national level.
I intended to vote for Harris soley for harm reduction, but I had to go into the emergency room on election morning and wasn't released in time to vote. So, technically, I didn't vote for a genocider. By your own logic, my hands are clean, and you are the genocider.
Of course, I don't ascribe that logic to any of this. Absolutist, black and white, chimeric ethical or moral frameworks that can't withstand the real world and have ultimately harmful outcomes are a luxury, if not an indulgence. Harm reduction, mutual aid, compassion, that's what is left as real once you strip away all the bullshit.
Democrats: You don't have to agree with 100% of everything a candidate wants to vote for harm reduction! Just pull the lever for our lovely genocide which is the only thing we'll ever be about! No one blames you for voting for harm reduction!
Also genocidal garbage democrats:
It was always about supporting the genocide you fuckers spent decades moving to the right to get. I voted like you genocidal assholes wanted, FOR THE REASONS YOU STATED, and you made it crystal clear that those reasons were bullshit and all you ever wanted was votes for your fucking precious genocide and enthusiastic complicity from the left.
You blame people who voted with you because you can't admit that you CHOSE to support FUCKING GENOCIDE AND ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE, knowing that it was going to lose you an election to trump. Because the people you're blaming warned you. You heard that, understood it perfectly, and liked the idea of genocide more.
And when you lose again because your crooked party apparatus forces newsom on us even though the left is screaming at you not to do that because you'll lose, you're not going to listen. We're not netanyahu or maga, so you'll never listen.
