ugh I genuinely, humanely, passionately hate those people. My and my wife have been receiving calls from her friends to announce that one is now a widow, now got her parents bombed with white phosphorus, that friends were lost, and so on.

Meanwhile, these awful people were making their fictional reference like if it was a fucking videogame.

So many of these people will play this little game where they pretend to be reluctant, like they care just as much as we do, but as much as it tears them up inside, they'll make the "rational" choice for the "lesser genocide."

Then, as soon as the leftists were out of the room, they dropped the facade and started talking about how great and wonderful Harris is and how they couldn't think of a single reason to dislike her. This wasn't the only post like that that got 1000+ upvotes, despite Lemmy being full of "reluctant" Harris voters.

A part of me wishes they'd just tell us straight up that they don't give a shit.
