    Usually they live in blue states that will partially insulate them from the consequences. Or they’re young and don’t understand knock on effects yet.

      b-but the… the genocide!!1!!1!11!

      (/s obviously, I don’t like it either)

      I genuinely don’t know what passes by their brain, but I got banned from commenting on a community on hexbear because I was saying that their little third party wouldn’t win anyways and by voting it they were helping trump, and every response was just calling me a genocide apologist because of my support for the dems.

      It seems like they can’t just reason properly

        It’s just very odd to me when they say both sides, but trump has openly stated he wants the military to fire live rounds at people protesting in support of Palestine.

        Or that trump wants to genocide* Latinos. Or that he has said he wants the military to purge people that don’t support him.

        *yes he said deport, but when the cost of such an operation starts rising then he’ll start pushing to instead kill people to lower costs. That’s how it goes every single time this rhetoric takes hold.
