    But you will aid genocide just because it suits your presidential preference. Filthy liberal.

    “I’ll help Trump get elected and bomb the West Bank! That’ll show Biden!”

    You apathetic centrists put your political teams over actual people’s lives. You treat politics like it’s a fucking wrestling match and you buy into the DNC’s kayfabe.

    Yeah, I was one of the leftists calling Biden a good for nothing fuckhead for the past 3 years. And then new year’s day 2024 happened, and like every leftist I started focusing on preventing a fascist from winning the general election. At first that meant pushing for other candidates in the primary, and now it means helping Biden win.

    Meanwhile, the politically aware centrists who had been cooperating with the left for the past three years, continued to try and prevent a Democrat presidency in 2024 because Both Sides Bad

    Oh, well then you’re using the wrong words to describe things. What you mean is, you’re not interested in extremist politics. It doesn’t sound like you have a problem with moderate politics.

    Here’s an example of some moderate politics: I want to watch the new season of Star Trek Prodigy with my partner, but my partner wants to run a load test on its CPU to check for problems. Turns out my partner can’t be in a voice chat while running the load test, I won’t be able to hear it. So I told it that it should finish its load test and message me when it’s ready to watch TV. That’s politics. A group of people had to make a decision, and we did. I made the decision and my partner accepted it, because my partner trusts me with political power and I place importance on my partner’s needs.

    (Also my partner does not yet know there is a new season of Prodigy. I’m planning to surprise it!)
