The US primaries and the general election are two different things. Voting uncommitted in the primary expresses support for the Palestinian plight and does not give Republicans any ground.

The uncommitted movement presents a safe and effective avenue for voters to voice dissatisfaction with President Biden’s policies, particularly with the Israel-Hamas conflict. By doing so in the primary, voters can signal discontent without risking a Republican victory in the general election. The purpose is to send a wake-up call to the Biden administration that it is failing to address issues and effectively engage with the party, vis a vis that Biden is enabling a genocide.

That being said, anyone who calls for an uncommitted or third-party vote in the general election i will personally kick in the gender neutral balls (in Minecraft).

As always, it's hard to separate legitimate and necessary criticism from assholes taking any excuse to talk shit. The latter will amplify and exaggerate whatever the former says.

Bad faith is just a bitch and a half to deal with.

Wholly agree with your point.

Off topic: why is the B word the only swear censored on blahaj.zone? I've noticed it in other communities from there and most, if not all other swears are safe.

B: removed Fuck shit ass cock dick pussy cunt

Either someone got mad for being called a B or they've got some conflicting thoughts on what justifies swearing and censorship.

Edit: might not be just blahaj, but that only extends my confusion.

As further testing: bitching, bitchin', bitchass, bitchface, biiitch, biiiiitch, binch, bongo.

edit: You're on lemmy.ml, my guy. Pretty sure they censor a bunch of nonsense.
