    Your argument is insane. For example, I would never, ever, ever expect a Jewish person to vote for a politician who is exterminating Jewish children, even if I could make a rational argument that their opponent is worse for Jewish people.

    You need to contend with fundamental human nature and you need to recognize that the Democratic Party for the past 13 months has acted beyond the moral pale. They have violated the red moral lines drawn by the world since 1945 and have done so with pride and sometimes caprice.

    Being petulant towards people who could not bring themselves to vote for a genocidaire, and treating their very human revulsion and horror as petulance, marks you as an untrustworthy person who is unserious about human rights or liberal values.

      You may be surprised to learn that Bibi wasn’t on any ballots anywhere in the US.

      You did have the option of voting for Harris who wants to pressure Israel into a cease fire or trump who wants Israel to finish off the Palestinians faster.

      So, like the other guy already said, if you didn’t vote for the one option who wanted to rein in the murder and also had a chance of getting more than 1% of the vote, you’re an “untrustworthy person who is unserious about human rights or liberal values.”
