I think you overestimate single-issue pro-genocide voters.
I have two options what would gladly see Gaza wiped out completely. I'm upset about that. I know why you aren't.
You interpret my analysis of their political strategy as me supporting the genocide happening right now, that's very insulting.
You truly need to take a step back, you're clearly too emotional to have this conversation.
Imagine being emotional about genocide.
You want me to believe that you dispassionately weighed the evidence and monstrous cold logic dictated that continuing to sell weapons so that genocide can flourish was the correct decision. I don't buy it. I think you started from a conclusion you liked and worked your way backwards.
You want to have a conversation about if it's right or wrong to send bombs to Israel when this conversation is about the political strategy behind the decision to continue to mention support for Israel during the campaign, they're two separate discussions and you're clearly unable to distinguish between the two.
And you don't.

The conversation was about her stance and the impact on her chance to get elected from the get go, not on if what's happening in Palestine is right or wrong (it is wrong, it's not the subject of the conversation even if you try to make it be about that).
If you don't want to have that conversation, talk to someone else.
If you don't want to have the conversation this was about in the first place why did you bother replying at all? You're the interloper here, not me.
Genocide is wrong. You support it anyway and come up with bullshit justifications to make yourself feel better about the outcome.
I don't support it at all, I've said it multiple times and, again, this is not what the conversation is about.
Except for advocating for persisting in selling weapons that guarantee that it will continue.
I never advocated for them to keep selling weapons. We're talking about the campaign, not actual policies and my point from the get go is that they would lose more votes than they would gain if they come out against Israel.

Work on your reading comprehension buddy, it's bad.
