    What are you talking about? You don’t get to speak for me. I voted for a highly educated & distinguished doctor who opposed the genocide in Gaza & advocated for healthcare as a human right. I think it bothers you that I actually voted with a moral conscious.

    I didn’t have to try to wrap myself in a pretzel to vote for Stein. I’m proud of who I voted for. You can claim all you want that your Dick Cheney praising candidate was morally superior, but it doesn’t make it true.

    If you want my vote then earn it. I don’t owe it to you. That is Democracy. What I saw & still see is a bunch of leftwing authoritarians trying to silence anyone critical of their beloved AIPAC puppets, demanding votes & wishing violence on anyone who doesn’t do what they demand.

      All the flimsy justification in the world doesn’t make up for the fact that you didn’t try to stop this. You empowered it.

      Edit: lmao is this really how you’re describing known Russian asset Jill Stein?

      highly educated & distinguished doctor who opposed the genocide in Gaza & advocated for healthcare as a human right.

      Stein had no chance of winning and you knew it. You voted for nobody. You didn’t vote. Not voting is mathematically equivalent to half a vote for the candidate you least support. You voted for Trump and everything his administration is doing now.

        I voted for her cause she earned my vote. I listened to what she had to say & her message carried substantially more values than “can’t think of anything I’d do differently than Joe” Kamala Cheney. You supported those responsible for the deaths of 20k+ children in Palestine. The Biden administration vetoed UN resolutions calling for a ceasefire. You voted for the indiscriminate killing of civilians. You’re getting exactly what you voted for. I didn’t vote for the indiscriminate killing of civilians. That is the difference.

          Whatever. You’re either too dense to understand how you helped Trump win or are pretending to be. In any case, you are not virtuous; you are part of the problem. Might as well go join ICE, chud.

              Your party too. Your party is the Republicans. You don’t exempt yourself by throwing your vote away - you join the greater of two evils. That’s the point you want to pretend you’re too dense to understand.
