    You make choices, you live with the consequences. It’s as simple as that.

    You agree that Trump is the lesser of two evils then there’s nothing to say at this point but you must live with the consequences of those actions.

    That’s life, that’s reality, that’s consequences.

      What a nice little rationalization you have for not regarding them as human.

      Has there ever been a people more arrogant than your kind? When you look through the past, you see all these cases of genocide, not one of them justified, and you think, “Ah, but they were all stupid. I’m so smart that when I support it, it’s the only rational, objectively correct decision.” It doesn’t even give you a moment of pause. You don’t even have the decency to speak about it with the gravity it deserves. You gleefully watch people die because it gives you the satisfaction of believing in your own rightness and superiority over the fools who actually give a damn. Meanwhile, you are so shortsighted and unimaginative that you think the laws imposed by our mortal rulers are as rigid and unchangable as natural law.

      Honestly, the more I talk to people like you, the more I understand religious people. Much as I dislike religion, if it provides immunization against your way of thinking, perhaps it’s worth it! Is there any way of thinking that’s worse than yours?

        What a utterly stupid comment.

        The fact that you have so little understanding that people can hold more than one opinion and rationale and seriously think that simple pointing out that Arab Americans that endorsed Trump must now live with the consequences and conflating that with that must mean holding that opinion means you’re jumping for joy that Trump is advocating for the displacement of Palestinians from Gaza.

        May you love in the interesting times your brought upon us all.

          Not as stupid as treating the moral line against genocide as more flexible than the bounds of political acceptability our rulers have attempted to impose.

          You people are dooming us more surely than anything else. Even if a democrat won every election, it would change nothing and we would still be right on track to fascism. It was your genius strategy of, “Accept literally anything, make no demands under any circumstances” that brought us into this situation in the first place. If you had shown any indication that you were capable of acting based on values or principles, the democrats would’ve known better than to think they could get away with this. Even now, you’re trying to prevent them from receiving the message that they would need to hear in order to win next time.
