My take is that there are a lot of people on the Left who would rather lose every election than compromise any of their principles. They consider this noble, but I consider it foolish at best and criminal at worst. Actual human beings are going to die because Donald Trump won the election.

Yep. It's great that they can signal their virtue and ideological purity. What sucks is that they can't show solidarity to actually help people nationally. If they even help people locally. Attacking the people they could reason with. Ignoring/enabling the really bad people. And admonishing the rest of us. Accusing us of enabling genocide for trying to do things that will actually see the less people killed. What were we thinking!

The genocide in Gaza was terrible. Now we get to have one in Gaza, and Ukraine, and parts of the USA.
