I don’t know what Harris’s voting record was on aid to Israel. But from what I saw of her and Trump, I definitely thought that Harris was more reasonable. Even if her position on Israel had flaws, surely she would have been more willing than Trump to sympathise with Palestinians. She might have changed her position on Palestine over time. Politicians often change their positions.
Maybe it’s a bit like here in the UK: our Labour government recognised the state of Palestine, and recently has announced sanctions for Israeli settlers in the West Bank. It might not be perfect, but if the UK had a Reform government (the UK’s equivalent of MAGA) then they would probably be actively supporting far-right Israeli leaders, and their intentions of dominating all of Palestine.
Look officer, I did stab my wife 57 times in the face and boil our child, but pobodys nerfect, right? Now I hear the guy next door stabbed his wife with a knife more gleefully than I did, so why do you even care? I’M SPEAKING!!!
You think your stance is a principled one but in reality surely a stance like yours just rolls out the red carpet for Trump. If you never support the less bad candidate because they don’t meet your lofty standards, then the worst candidate wins.

Uk is literally doing that, right now. The only difference is that you support it now

When did Kamala Harris stab or boil anybody?
What are metaphors?

So you do understand how metaphors work?
Ah yes, the tankie triad, forever pushing everybody away from their shitty takes with snide comments
“Genocide is fine, but I draw the line at snide convened”
What goes around comes around. You might get more pleasant interactions if you behave with common decency.
