    That’s a terrible example. I was talking about having a choice between two evils and not an evil and a woman.

      That a disingenuous reply at best, the choice is clearly “person doesn’t do enough to help your people” vs “person who actively allows great harm to your people”.

      The example could probably have done with being gender neutral, but even so.

      I’m not sure why you zeroed in on the female part and not the “doesn’t do enough to help your people” part.

        I thought the implication was that a muslim wouldn’t vote for a woman, because she is a woman. Re-reading it, I understand the comment to be an implicit reference to the last US presidential election and Harris’ stance on Israel/Gaza. Not being American myself, I don’t really have much to say about that particular dilemma.

          Yeah, re-reading it myself , it was a weird example and that may have been where they were going with it.
