    I was eagerly looking forward to people coming into the comments saying how all of us don’t understand, Kamala was an unprecedented villain because she was adjacent to a whole different person who was all squeamish about putting the brakes on the genocide he didn’t want, refusing to vote for her made PERFECT sense even now in the grisly light of hindsight, and installing someone instead who wants more genocide and a whole lot more is totally exactly what the Palestinians would have wanted.

    Come on guys, there’s only one so far. Surely we can muster up more than that.

      If that person is your boss and you’re trying to win a popularity contest then meaningfully diverging from their messaging is a good thing. Instead she mirrored his messaging. She could have been speaking in good faith, but nobody believed her because of her boss’ bad faith.
