so now you’re just insulting the opposition?

Where is the insult? We were quoting Biden officials, I thought it relevant to link that in response to you mentioning Biden swearing on the phone, which likely had zero impact. Biden wasn't fit for office or reelection, and the reason the Democrats lost is because he held on until the last minute, making a primary impossible. In no world would Kamala have won under the circumstances with her policies.

I'm not interested in winning arguments regarding critical subjects like this, but rather trying to get to the heart of your insistence to support a system that is blind and unwilling to represent its populace, who pay for the bombs that have killed many innocents.

The DNC has lost major donors.

Edit: And I did lie, not purposely, but alas. I mentioned the genocide twice or thrice prior to the election, with one instance garnering me one internet point and another losing me one. I remember doing my best to hold my tongue. I convinced no one to stay home as far as I am concerned, and even if I did somehow, that was their decision.
