    Thanks for proving my point. I couldn’t have scripted that better! Seems you’re running out of places to post your propaganda.

    I love that for you!

      So are you denying that genocide is happening right now in Palestine or what? Because I don’t really understand the misinformation claim here

        Really? It’s not obvious? Op is blatantly and flat out accusing an entire social media platform of supporting genocide.

        No One is supporting it because they are voting for Harris. That’s misinformation. It’s blatant propaganda. And it’s evidence of a bad-faith attempt to influence an election.

          So wait, Harris is for a change of policy regarding Israel? Pretty sure she wants to continue on what was before - which is longstanding support of Israel, which at the moment is committing genocide.

            I’m not going to argue this with you. I know what you’re about and I’m not falling for it.

            Just lean what nuance means. And try and do better in the future.

              You aren’t arguing with me because you want to handwave support for genocide as “nuance”, call everyone talking about it a propagandist and sleep better at night knowing you support “the good guys”.

                I’m not going to argue with you because no matter what I say, as evident above- you are going to rewrite my words, and argue against that.

                In other words, I don’t debate straw men.

                  There is no strawman. Harris supports Israel, same as Biden supports Israel. Israel is committing genocide. So Harris supports Israel in committing genocide. There is no nuance here - just bitter truth to swallow - the US is sending carriers, troops. The US is sending bombs that kill people in Gaza.

                    And there’s the nuance you appear to lack an understanding of. I’m only going to do this once:

                    This take of yours is just bad math. You think there’s a cause and effect here, but it seems that you lack the understanding of how nuanced the situation actually is.

                    For starters, I’m going to guess that you have no idea about the history between Israel and Palestine prior to October of last year. So you don’t know that the attacks issued from both sides of this conflict is something that’s gone on for decades. (Which makes their history a very nuanced situation)

                    You might also not know how trade agreements work. So this would mean that for you- breaking one is should be simple and easy, and free of any repercussions!

                    It’s not. (It’s VERY nuanced)

                    Lastly, a vote for a person that adheres to a policy that you don’t agree with, isn’t by default, a showing of support of that thing. (Again, nuance) For example:

                    • I don’t support child labor, yet I have a mobile device. (See? Nuance)

                    • I don’t support global warming, yet I drive a car. (There’s that nuance again)

                    • I don’t support violence against women, yet I have watched a few movies produced by Weinstein. (Getting the picture?)

                    THIS is what nuance is. It illustrates the ignorance of black and white thinking. Right and wrong thinking. Rigidity vs. moral flexibility.

                    You want to paint in such broad strokes that everthing is either with you- or against you without seeming having learned how any of it actually works.
