Did you?
The fact that you read my entire comment and laser-focused on that one detail. If we're descending into purity tests on the Left, we will never win another election.
I absolutely did not read your entire comment. The hypocrisy just stuck out to me from a glance. I wasn't planning to continue to read.
Along with, of course, the hypocrisy of the fact that you're now applying a purity test before you will vote for a Democrat, even in hindsight, even if she has only the vaguest of connections with the holocaust in Gaza, and even if the alternative is a hundred times worse including for Gaza.
It's done. I'm not sure why I'm still talking about it. I think I just still have some nervous energy left over because of the question of what the fuck I'm going to do now.
I did, absolutely. I'm much more suspicious of the older, more Centrist people who told me they didn't think America was "ready to elect a woman". I suspect that most of them really meant they weren't ready, and sat out.
