Comment on Serious statement: I don't understand the argument that not voting for Harris was the morally correct thing to do, because of Gaza. Why does anyone believe this?

  That just means you value your own ability to evade blame over the lives of real people.

  Yeah but also they all die anyway.

    It wasn’t horrifying until now? Maybe they weren’t white or part of your propaganda.

    Almost like they are paying for the people suffering thousands of miles away?

    Do you have a brain by any chance?

  Yes, this is how I felt. I would rather not choose to vote for the ‘lesser of two evils’ and pretend that’s good. It’s not just Gaza though, it’s corporatism, war profiteering, and terrible policy.

  I would rather see the system collapse and possibly die in the process than support another shitty government even if it’s the less shitty one.

    That’s a horrible outlook, and I’m sorry you’ve been driven to that point. I understand, as I have been there before.

    Now that I’m older, I don’t think letting apathy win and watching the government go full Fash was the correct choice, but I don’t blame you. The system isn’t going to collapse, though, it’s just going to get a lot shittier for awhile.
