Not half as “amazing” as protest voters that think not doing anything will result in a change for the better.

We voted. We tried to stop this. If you didn’t- then you have no place casting aspersions at those that did.

For lots of these people it can't get any worse. Gaza is being absolutely devastated, what do they have to lose? I'm not trying to argue that not voting democrat is a good idea, but I don't think you are engaging with the situation these people are dealing with. It's easy to argue from the sidelines that Trump is worse for Palestine, but I can't imagine having to actually vote for an administration that is actively committing genocide on my home land.

Democrats got absolutely fucking destroyed in the election. I beg you to reflect on the strategies used by democrats and liberals. Have some compassion and try to understand the motivations of voters instead of blaming them for the failures of the democratic party.

You cannot win the support of people by shaming them, it simply doesn't work. Please stop doing it.

No. They deserve to feel shame. This is every bit and exponentially more- their fault as they try to say it is the DNC’s. The blame lies everywhere but at the feet of those who voted to deep trump out.

Now they get to be victims of their own decision.

And trust me when I say this- it will get MUCH worse. Israel hasn’t occupied Gaza yet. But you can bet your ass they’re going to now.
