   Liberals: why didn’t you vote to continue Biden’s polite genocide? I was comfortable with that. Now I’m uncomfortable with Trump’s rude ethnic cleansing and it’s all your fault.

     @mimi Wasn’t it just sparkling incentivised relocations and subsidised life forfeiture before? I’m so confused.

     @aral It's interesting how eager the media suddenly are to point out ethnic cleansing is a war crime.

     @mpsi Yeah, which is why I told people to hold their noses and vote for Harris.

     There’s a huge bloody difference between that and gloating – actually fucking gloating – that people who didn’t vote for Harris (which, ironically, include Palestinians) somehow deserve what they’re getting.

     @aral Not voting when you can is plain STUPID. Even if the difference between candidates seems tiny, you should learn to make a choice.

     @mpsi And how about the huge bloody difference between having a candidate that supports genocide and one that doesn’t. How morally vacuus are the Democrats that they cannot not support genocide, much less oppose it. (That’s a rhetorical question, by the way.)

     @aral What you perceived as a tiny difference, for some people becomes the line between life and death.
