    I was just looking back in some of my comment replies, looking for people who’d told me how proud they were not to vote for Harris, because of Gaza, so I could tag them and ask what’s up with that.

    I’m not sure if I’m petty enough to do it, but I feel like doing it. I think I am petty to that level, TBH.

    There’s also https://ponder.cat/post/1451400 for anyone who told me Biden hadn’t done enough to protect trans people. Actually! It might be better to tag the story about transferring trans women to be housed with men in federal prison. I feel like they might want to tell me more about how glad they were they didn’t vote for Biden, and about how it’s all Biden’s fault, and mine, that they didn’t feel right enough to vote not to have that happen.

      Update: I’ve done two, and I have to stop. I honestly just can’t stand it. For one, it’s kind of mean-spirited. Even if it is deserved and I do think it’s productive to do the retrospective, I don’t feel good about it. For two, I’m genuinely just getting too angry, looking back on myself warning these people of exactly what would happen, and them blathering at me about what a good idea they had, not voting for Democrats, and how much it would help.

      Hi @mambabasa@slrpnk.net!

      Remember this?

      https://slrpnk.net/comment/11760640

      You said, “What are you even voting for? The election is Trump versus Trump-lite-but-female” and heavily encouraged people not to vote, because that would help.

      Do you still feel like refusing to vote for Harris was helpful, when you did it? How do you see it?

        You might as well add me to the list because I voted socialist and will never vote Dem again. I hope America burns because you liberals sure as hell have lost all touch with reality 👍

        Y’all deserve everything that’s coming.

          I wonder why you are so brave in explaining yourself, when the non-anonymous accounts are so silent. You’d think everyone would be coming out of the woodwork to explain how reality has proven their strategy to be a good one, and themselves so forward thinking.
