You could say the same about people voting for the lesser of two evils. Just lazy hypocrites who can't follow their own chain of thought to its necessary conclusion: genocide and kids in cages but polite, and just out of sight enough that we don't have to join the kids in the streets.
I wouldn't say that about either though, we're largely talking about people who genuinely want to improve the world we live in and have morals, we shouldn't be spending our time punching those people for wanting to do it "wrong".
Its ultimately on the DNC and the Harris campaign for doing a terrible job providing a candidate and a platform for their wide coalition. We should be hammering them now, instead of those darn 'lazy voters'. If we don't, they are going to make the same mistakes, and we're going to get another Bidenesqe four years of back to normal followed by a return to right wing populism when nothing gets better for anyone under one term president Center-right.
