We got nothing from the Dems, so the only thing that remains for us to do is what we always said we will do no matter what - vote for Harris.

I genuinely do not understand this lib talking point of "a vote is not an endorsement." It literally is! What, it doesn't count as supporting them if you feel bad when you do it?? Politicians could not give less of a shit.
These geniuses just completely destroyed any capacity they might have to make credible threats in the future, and proved that anyone treating them as unserious was correct.
The silliest thing is that elected officials literally use their vote numbers as endorsements! Right up until he dropped out Brandon was using the 2020 popular vote to say that people backed his policies.
No politician worth their salt would ignore such an easy way to claim legitimacy, and especially not because you said pretty-please don't take this as an endorsement of your genocidal actions
It's literally just like, "It's fine if my beliefs never manifest into any difference in material action, just so long as I know I'm holding the correct ideas in my head." Peak idealism.
