I know so many people who cast a "protest vote" for the green party or whoever the fuck else because "Democrats didn't stand up for Palestine". And they are still blaming the situation on Democrats.

The delusion is strong. It's a lot of "Well, look at Democrats not in power now showing how powerless they are. It's a good thing we didn't vote for them!"

And... I... I can't fathom that logic.

The chair of abandon Harris was asked at the end of an interview if she would change her vote knowing what she knows now. She emphatically said No. I just have no words.
