    I voted for Harris. But pretending anyone with criticism of a genocide is some Russian stooge or at best an anti-Democrat dupe is part of the whole narrative that keeps you from engaging with moral ideas in a complex and serious manner. Posts about Israeli crimes have not stopped, criticism of Joe Biden’s policies have not stopped (because he’s still president and is still ignoring his own red lines on the war crimes), and as soon as Trump is the one doing the deed it will switch to him. To liberals convinced issues only exist for supporting or opposing Democrats, it’s all just a made up controversy, but it’s about the genocide, stupid.

    But speaking of that, the election’s over, Harris lost and Biden can’t run again, are you ready to call politicians who passively (and sometimes actively) support a genocide being committed with US funded weaponry bad people yet? I thought this aversion to criticizing Democrats was just supposed to be a political strategy, but somehow still “the genocide” is only a criticism that seems to be applied to American actors in a future sense.
