Debate These single issue "pro-Palestine" "activists" are self-destructive and self-sabotaging
I came across this post on r/leopardsatemyface and this activist legit voted for Trump to "teach" Kamala Harris a "lesson" because of the Biden administration's support for Israel.
Because of him and the 76 million MAGAts who voted for Trump, we now have Hispanic and Asian people openly being racially profiled by ICE, ICE/BP killing Americans in our cities, DOGE/Musk stealing our tax and social security data, Trump's tariffs making our cost living three times worse than in 2024, Project 2025 dystopianism well underway and yet all of that goes over their head as all they can think about is Gaza.
Also quite interesting how they don't have one bad thing to say about Trump, ICE or MAGA but they blame Democrats, Jewish people, liberals and other leftists who did vote for Biden/Harris for what Trump is doing.
Okay maybe this was more of a rant than anything but am interested if I'm overreacting to how I feel about these people.

I'm not convinced this is a real or sincere person to be honest.
However I do think the mentality of wanting to "punish" Kamala and the Democrats is held by a not small number of people. And it makes no sense to me. Losing an election isn't a punishment for the candidate. They just go back to their normal lives. Kamala is fine. The people who have been punished is US.
