Voting for Dems is not saying ‘I don’t want anyone else to get hurt,’ as you claim they were arguing. If you look at the actual comment, they’re just saying it would be done in a different way. They quite pointedly did not imply Dems would not hurt anyone.
It is dishonest to claim the scale of the harm is different under Democrats than Republicans. Rather, it is the media attention paid to the harm that is most changed.
I am sick of this madness, pretending that a bomb dropped or a service cut or a person deported by a Democrat vs a Republican is in any way ‘harm reduction.’
Do you understand what is going on in our government right now? The scale or even intentions are not the same in the slightest and are entirely unprecedented. You could be disappeared tomorrow by plainclothes lackeys and sent to an El Salvadorian death camp with no due process. That is no longer an exaggeration. They’re gutting nearly all government services and purging anyone who does not ideologically agree with them. They’ve destroyed our digital security and have opened the information of millions of Americans up to foreign and domestic influence. I hate the media too but this is not business as usual.
And the Dems are voting to approve the appointments and policies, and helping to fund these actions. But again, you seem to have some tunnel vision on what the media is feeding you, so I wouldn’t be surprised if you legit didn’t know the Dems were part of this operation.
To wave off their active participation and material support as “lack of resistance” makes it clear you’re either pushing an agenda, or are simply gullible.

Given the scale of harm is quite different, I don’t think describing it as merely a different type of harm is accurate.

I too am disappointed at the lack of resistance from the supposed opposition party. Still not the same thing though.

I’ve heard about the cabinet confirmations. What else is there?
