    When you spend all day every day criticising the vice president for things that she doesn’t even have control over, when you dismiss the fact that Trump is actively convincing the one man who can actually decide to stop it to walk away from Biden’s ceasefire deal, when all you talk about is how evil the Democrats are and ignore our dismiss or minimise anything bad about the republicans, less than a week before the election, don’t be surprised or upset if people call you a trump supporter, because your actions certainly support him becoming president and not taking that threat seriously is foolish.

    I challenge you to find one thing I have said, at any time, anywhere, that implies that.

    It’s not a single statement, it’s a wall of argument. It’s everything, you can’t help yourself. The whole thrust of your argument, and there’s a lot of it, implies your condemn the Democrats, excuse and condone the Republicans position.

    It’s the same in the very part I’m replying to. There’s one sentence of criticism of Trump in the middle of a very long argument about how I’m wrong about everything I ever said and the Democrats are evil incarnate and me being so nasty to you is why you dislike Kamala and how everything wrong in the world can be laid at the feet of the Democrats again.

    Your bias shines through. You’re both sidesing the whole thing.

    It’s disingenuous. It’s sometimes clever, sometimes subtle, sometimes obvious, sometimes unsubtle, but it’s always a false equivalence. I don’t buy your sham theoretical neutrality any more than I buy utility contracts on my doorstep.

    Again, if you don’t like being called a Republican or a trump supporter, don’t spend all day repeating their talking points on the internet and heckling anyone who has anything bad to say about Trump or anything good to say about Harris, and don’t conclude in every single post that it’s all Kamala’s fault and she could snap her fingers now to stop it. It isn’t and she can’t.

      Now go ahead and respond to me without answering my criticisms (since you cannot, since they are objectively correct) and keep focusing on who (you think) I am, rather than what I say.

      Called it.

        Your first two criticisms were that you never said anything implying Trump would be better and that you wrote lots against him in threads I’ve never seen when the opportunity arises. (It’s just the the opportunity somehow rarely arises.) I dealt with those two and clicked post because it was already long. So no, I didn’t ignore your criticisms, I just disagreed with them. It’s not the same thing.

          No, my criticism is on Biden bypassing congress to send weapons to Israel and Kamala saying that she supports continuing to send more weapons. Everything else is just responding to your bullshit allegations.

            And my criticism of you is that you just PRETEND to care about Gaza so you can find reasons to get leftists to exclude themselves from choosing the president so that the right wins and everything gets WORSE in Gaza and rich idiots in the USA sit happily unaffected.

            That you pretend to dislike Trump, but can’t bring yourself to say more than 10% of what you say against him, and it’ll be vague and not on any of the real issues and 90% of what you say will be both sidesing it and acting like the Democrats are worse than the Republicans.
