Listen: electing democrats is critically important. Reelecting Joe Biden is critically important. If your reaction to seeing me say that he has done something good is to jump in to talk about Gaza, I’m going ti block you. Not because I disagree about Gaza, but because you’re being an asshole.

Yup! 👍 Single issue voting is never a good idea. 🗳️

They just want attention so you need to take it away from them forever.

My new theory is that the vast majority of people who are repelled by Gaza are repelled by Gaza and willing to do stuff to help, but there is a hard nut of folks for whom the issue isn't the lives of the people in Palestine and Israel but rather their own precious feelings ("not in my name").

For me this is not only a truth but I look to history as a guide: I would argue LBJ was the best President post-FDR and he was undone by Vietnam. This not only plunged U.S. domestic politics into decades of Hell, but didn’t stop the war for another 6 years, and we later learned (1/ )

Why would anyone care if you block them? How egocentric are you?

I may disagree about what levers the us president has to make things better (“better” subject to whatever definition people are using) in Gaza, but I’m open to that disagreement and discussion. I’m not open to you turning everything I post about Biden into that discussion.

That's been my day so far. Most blocks in one day since I joined!

Yup. Gaza being used as wedge issue to foster internecine rancor and voter apathy among left leaning folks. I've been called a monster and that I'm "throwing women and children under the bus" when stating that I'm voting for Joe. BLOCKED.

This is gonna be random, off topic and completely out of nowhere but do you type with SwiftKey?
