It was relevant, not random. You answered clearly and unambiguously. I have met reactionary types aplenty, and they adopt this framing as a preemptive defense. You know this. I’ll do what I think is right, then concede if the matter is settled.

Sigh. If that were the case, you wouldn’t reply. This is a tempest in a teapot, friend.

You have replies off in your previous message, but my reply is: Thanks. I’m glad to see you’re one of the good guys, and that we have a difference of opinion on the cause of the 2024 loss. Your argument is bad, is all. I’d ask about Is/Gaza no matter your name. Your implication is unwarranted.

I’m a person who knocked doors for Harris, donated a shitload of money, and had a Biden coffee mug. Leftists didn’t lose the 2024 election for Harris. This guy offers NO data, and seems to be a reactionary against criticism of Israeli policy in Gaza. Tell us: What’s your opinion of Israel/Gaza.

What’s this guy on about? The big vote bloc who won it for Trump were Repubs + low-info voters. A ton of people shamefully noped out of voting, but they sure weren’t a big chunk of homogeneous “leftists.” What we need is solidarity. This is not that.

Deploring Israel's actions as a state isn't antisemitic. Attacking Jews and symbols of Jewish culture in supposed retaliation for Israel's actions is however *textbook* antisemitism and these are not complicated thoughts to simultaneously hold in one's head.

The “one great man” fallacy has a converse that too many people also fall prey to: The “one terrible man” fallacy. Meaning too many people mistakenly think “if only we can get rid of the one terrible man at the top, the fever will break and the problem will be solved”. Ec: Trump and the GOP.

Tim Cook is gay, worth billions & CEO of Apple. When he says he's "not political," what he means is that his money has built a wall so high that none of the legislation, discrimination or violence aimed at people like him can touch him. That's not neutrality it's the luxury of not having to care.
