Like Dearborn? Where Arab Americans had been sounding alarm bells for months about how democrats were losing them? How they were upset about their brothers and sisters being blown the fuck up in Palestine and Lebanon? How leftists were vehemently warning for months that Kamala's callous take on the middle east "Im speaking now 🤫", could cost her the election?

Your comment is just thinly-veiled racism. Next time, just say you blame american fascism on american Muslims.

And now that you are reaping, you're lashing out. In textbook liberal fashion, you're scapegoating minorities as fascism starts to come knocking.

If you can honestly look at the complete ineptitude of the democrat establishment and Kamala's race, and still blame minorities, then I feel like I know which side you're going to take when shit really starts getting volatile here.

None of that changes the reality that they did not vote for harm reduction and now more harm will come to the people they purport to protect (and likely themselves, now that evangelical christians are in power). This is textbook shooting off your nose to spite your face. There is no rule saying you need to pass a moral purity test to earn a vote, that's a dumb construct that is hampering progress. You can vote for harm reduction, it's ok. The conservatives keep winning and moving further right. The democrats could win and move further left if their cranky coalition would accept not getting everything they want for once.

Harm reduction is the only workable strategy in a democracy, even a flawed one like the US.

But no, it's the same old shitty double standard: Democrats have to be perfect, but "that's just Trump being Trump." So in our distaste for catching the flu, we how have chosen to give ourselves a case of ass cancer.

Ah, hello, dipshit. Let's explain math, the "uncommitted" stunt resulted in Trump winning MI. Trump has said that he would untether Israel. So now the Arab community is in an even wworse position and there will be more death in the middle east. It's just that simple.

And fuck you straight to hell for suggesting I'm racist. You don't know shit. I'm fucking half Syrian. Enjoy the bed of shit you helped make with your flawed logic. Harris would have pushed for peace - Bibi put Dems in an impossible position by deliberately scuttling peace talks until after the election.

Also, it wasn't just the Arab community. There are plenty of morons who think they're enlightened third party voters that also played into Trump's hands.
