The US primaries and the general election are two different things. Voting uncommitted in the primary expresses support for the Palestinian plight and does not give Republicans any ground.

The uncommitted movement presents a safe and effective avenue for voters to voice dissatisfaction with President Biden’s policies, particularly with the Israel-Hamas conflict. By doing so in the primary, voters can signal discontent without risking a Republican victory in the general election. The purpose is to send a wake-up call to the Biden administration that it is failing to address issues and effectively engage with the party, vis a vis that Biden is enabling a genocide.

That being said, anyone who calls for an uncommitted or third-party vote in the general election i will personally kick in the gender neutral balls (in Minecraft).

    Clearly they are not. It seems like a weak attempt to try to “catch” a commenter out as a bot driven by AI?

    Once again, the idea that real people with real opinions that differ from theirs exist is an impossibility, and thus there must be a nefarious reason for them having this opinion. They’re either a Republican, or a Russian, or a bot, or a or a or a…

    It seems they have sunk to the level of where, since they feel they can no longer trust that things on the internet are real, have decided only things that fit their ideologies could be a reality, and anything otherwise leads them into frothing-at-the-mouth madness.

    I understand that the internet is a scary place filled with misinformation but hot damn it’s a bad coping mechanism to assume the worst of everyone you encounter who has a different hot take than you.
