    Yeah the brand of leftist that cannot understand two things can be true is so annoying.

        Nuance /=/ doublethink. We were trying to save people… You’re not a good person if you threw your vote away in spite to send a message. People are suffering and dying because of this.

          When a person accepts two confilcing beleifs that’s called doublethink

          Blaming voters is not a viable way to win elections.

            Those beliefs aren’t actually conflicting because the circumstances in which you apply them are different and that matters.

            What IS conflicting is saying you don’t approve of what a democrat says or does as president and then actively working in the benefit of someone you KNOW full well is worse. That’s hypocritical.

            You can acknowledge two things are bad and still make a choice for harm reduction. You’re not suddenly “accepting” that this is now a good thing. You’re making a sacrifice for other things
