Put on your oxygen mask before trying to help others, that is the moral here.

Yeah, boil it down to trite moral lesson! That's perfect!

Wait, isn't that your move here in every one of the dozen+ comments you've left us?

What do you mean? I'm brainstorming for the next election!

If your rights and safety at home are curtailed as a result of your vote in a vain attempt to punish Biden's apparent strategic powerlessness, what good was it, if on top of that you now get a ghoul over whom you have ~~zero~~ negative leverage?

Focusing only on the outcomes of the actions, while not examining the circumstances that led to the actions? Yes! That will make sure this never happens again!

That's a good point! Don't ask if people voted for Harris. Assume they didn't! It's important to attack anyone who might even just empathize with these voters, otherwise that empathy might lead then to question the DNC's decisions!
