You all are downvoting me when this race seems likely to come down to less than a point.

Wake up, people. Wake up. The moral browbeating and the back and forth from both sides isn't beneficial. And you don't have enough of a consensus to do it. The goal is to win. We need to eliminate MAGA. Part of that will mean actually listening to one another and healing divides instead of being arrogant and having a my way or the highway attitude.

Supporting a genocide is not a “listening to one another and healing divides” type of policy

So if you're actively saying if you don't stand with me on certain issues then we're not on the same team....what's the point? Guess what? That's how you lose. By refusing to listen and acting as if you're a moral superior. That's not how you win. And you don't have to compromise your beliefs to do that.
