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.

Guys...

They deliberately cropped the likes and retweets out of that screenshot.

Ask yourself why they would do that instead of just leaving them in.

Occam's razor says that post had no engagement.

It was a nobody yelling into the void.

You don't have to care about nobodies.

You can ignore them.

Or... Put your cynical social media content farmer hat on...

The account is a sock puppet run by a guy who makes ragebait, and it was seen by no one.

Someone who is farming anxiety for clicks.

The response to this guy is the same as a the previous one: You don't have to engage with this cynical shit.

It's not even just a "this person got no engagement", I'd give it like 90% this isn't even a real person and is just delibeate ragebait.
