    I agree that it is not a binary situation. Which is why it is crucial for people to break free of understanding their political choices as voting one of two candidates handed to them once every four years.

    And that is why the whole “if you are not for Harris, you are a secret Trump supporter hurr durr” needs to end. US people are gaslighting themselves to become supporters of the most heinous crimes, when these are supported by both parties.

    Now Israel will drag the US into another endless war in the Middle East.

      Voting at the federal level is absolutely a binary situation in the US. That’s not gaslighting, it’s literally the structure of our voting system.

      “if you are not for Harris, you are a secret Trump supporter hurr durr”

      I didn’t say that and I would never argue that position, so please stop putting words in my mouth.

        Im not referring to you, but the general sentiment that is usually present, as soon as criticism of Harris and Biden is voiced.
