They didn’t lead to the apathy - they pointed out the existing apathy would cost Dems the election.
You’re exactly right about people being excited for Trump and lukewarm on Harris, but that’s entirely on the Democrats for picking the platform and strategy that lost to Trump in 2016.
Harris had a notable and surprising lead when they announced Biden was out - then they changed nothing else. People didn’t just not like the candidate, they didn’t like the policies. They only changed the candidate and thought Trump was a big enough cudgel to bully people into voting even though that demonstrably doesn’t work.

When you inflate a balloon with your breath is it more bouyant?
- Comment on When you inhale helium from a balloon, do you weigh less? 2 months ago:
That is exactly the difference between weight and mass. And yes, that would be weightless and objects like balloons have negative weight until they reach an altitude where they’re neutrally bouyant and then are weightless.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight
Weight is defined as a force and has a direction. That’s what causes the movement. If the weight didn’t change there would be no movement.

I couldn’t find any definition of geometric shape that uses that criterion, including Wikipedia which also has a 5-pointed star shown with 5 line segments labelled as a shape: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape.
The meme is wrong because squares are polygons by definition, which by definition are made of line segments, but this image has a curved shape.

Basically. They’re ambush hunters that pop up and snatch/vacuum prey into their maws. I recall the tassels are also attractive to fish that look for food in the sand, but don’t quote me on that.

This will come as an absolute shock to you. You can still vote for someone you criticize…
Which party was it that dogpiles on anyone that dares criticize their shitty candidates again?

Yes. Exactly! The reason people keep bitching about Harris and genocide is because they hope something might actually happen about it.
Biden was an absolutely terrible candidate (that I was going to vote for) and probably the only person who could lose against Trump. Because people constantly bitched about how bad he was they changed the candidate.
Harris doesn’t get to use Trump as a not-as-bad-as screen, and given that we don’t have the option of not voting for her, everyone should be applying every other available form of pressure to discourage her from enabling genocide or otherwise maintaining the status quo.

Somehow people think that pointing out people are pro-genocide means that Trump somehow isn’t pro-genocide.
Like you’re not allowed to think about two problems at once. Or that there are no other options…
