Bonus genocide apologia from the comments:
To radlibs, supporting genocide is “well-reasoned logic”. You live in a horror story. Every person you walk past on the street could be a depraved ghoul who thinks torturing and murdering children is “well-reasoned logic”. Every person you walk past on the street could be a depraved ghoul who looks at the NSFL photos coming out of Gaza and calls that ”well-reasoned logic”. Just think about that for a minute. Just think about how many people you pass every day, people who can hold the door open for you, who can smile at you, who can line up at the coffee shop while browsing cute pictures of cats online, all while also happening to be depraved genocide supporters. Just think about how happy it makes them to support genocide. So incredibly happy yet so incredibly banal that the pleasure they derive from genocide becomes a fixer-upper like their morning cup of coffee. Tell me that isn’t a horror story.
This isn’t an issue with some insane complexity that requires all of these ‘thought exercises’.
We are talking about the second in command who is running for president, and who is part of an admin that is actively facilitating a genocide against the will of it’s own voting base, the ‘generous’ interpretation being that their donor class wishes them to do so. Regardless, her base will continue to support her for a litany of reasons but they are supporting a candidate who is (and has stated she wishes to continue) facilitating a genocide.
Whatever twisted logic can be strung together will never undo that simple truth.
Donald Trump could literally be Adolf Hitler in a mask, and it still does not make this permissable; in fact, that should make it MORE galling then, that these people are actively sabotaging their own election chances vis a vis alienating their own base by killing people. Instead, liberal pundits and politicians have decided it is the fault of voters not being able to stomach the stench of death wafting off of their party, and the ‘loyal’ voters join them in condemning their own, rather than directing their righteous fury at their own politicians who are mocking them.
So unbelievably housebroken.
