    There is somehow always a moving Boogeyman in here.

    And yet it’s everyone else that has to grow up.

      I was told to grow up the other day for simply pointing out why Muslim/Arab voters may be struggling internally with voting for Harris. Just, y’know, applying empathy and putting myself into someone’s shoes who has way more involved in that than I do.

      When I pointed out that this is why Democrats lose voters (they’re condescending and dismissive to their own party because their issues/concerns aren’t “convenient” right now) I’m screamed at for supporting Trump and how much worse it would be.

      100,000 voters cast protest votes during the primaries in just Michigan alone over the Palestinian genocide, it’s clearly an important issue to your constituents and they deserve to be treated with respect. Not condescension and insults, as if they can’t possibly comprehend their choices here.

        If Trump wins, don’t look to the liberals you hate to swing Trump to the left on this one. Eventually, under Christian Nationalism & Fascism, there won’t be any Palestinians or their supporters left, so I guess it’s a self-resolving issue.

          If Trump wins, there is no one to blame but Harris and the Democrats, full stop. If we fall to fascism, which I hope we don’t (I already begrudgingly voted Harris this morning), I will blame no one but the Democrat Party.

          They chose to ignore the Muslim/Arab voices protesting this past year, they chose to run on a moderate presidential platform, and they refuse to denounce a genocide, or even do anything about it (Biden is still president, and has continued to do nothing but send Netanyahu whatever he wants).

          You all want Muslim/Arab voters to vote for Harris to prevent fascism, well, they wanted you all to take their wants seriously, and Biden/Harris haven’t.

          So if they lose, it’s on the Democrat party, not anyone else.
