    This should be seen as a violation of Rule 3 (Be Civil). The poster makes a particularly heinous claim, that Democrats as a whole are child murderers. It’s just as wrong as Republicans saying we are a bunch of baby-murderers.

    This poster is not here to engage in honest open debate. It’s here to attack us and make us feel bad about ourselves, so we aren’t as comfortable expressing our political ideology. It’s here to make us ashamed of voting for the major party closest to our position. It’s here to make enough of us sit out or vote third party so that the Republicans could win. Is it doing so to serve the interests of Putin and Xi? Is it doing so because it thinks this is really the best answer to the problems that face the country? Is it doing so because it wants to see it all burn down? It doesn’t matter. Reader, if YOU want to ensure that you don’t want Project 2025 to happen, do not give this bad-faith poster what it wants and vote third party or stay home.

    PS: Democrats aren’t killing kids. We actually do have problems with killing kids, but that’s just as true when it’s Hamas or Iran killing Israeli kids as it is when it’s Israelis killing Palestinian kids. We just don’t see a way out that makes this whole shitshow a fuckton worse. Keep that in mind as you read this bad-faith poster’s words.

      Lol you want to hide behind rules because you don’t like my message.

      I didn’t say “all democrats,” I mentioned a subset of the party membership

      In any case, so many showed up to clap for Netanyahu that it’s hard to think anything except that the party is perfectly OK with child killing
