      Was reading through and I noticed they’re “very serious” about genocide over there. In particular, this person:

      You know, there’s a very, very small part of me that wants Trump to win so you can watch in horror as the casualty rate for Palestinians skyrockets by 10x or more

      What is their reason for this? Surely it’s a good one, to be saying something so horrible.

      just so I can scream in your ear

      I fucking told you so

      These are the people, we are supposed to believe, who are “protecting democracy”. A “small part of them” wishing for a worse world so they can say “I told you so” to someone on the internet.

      To me, it displays what their true colors are: it’s not a serious issue to them, but they feel like they’ve got to pretend it is. Same general framework as the people who say “vote for the lesser of two evils”, but don’t seem bothered by the fact they’re encouraging people to be complicit in evil, presumably because they don’t actually believe it’s evil and just think the other person believes it is.
