It's very funny to me that you received friendly fire because people on your side saw a simple "genocide is bad" meme and just assumed it was about them.

I think it's more that OP has made numerous comments in this thread arguing that we should vote for Biden.

OP's vibe seems to be "Yes, I really really really do oppose genocide... but the responsible thing is to vote for Biden, and people who won't support him are the true genocide enablers."

Right, he's a Biden stan and other Biden stans are attacking him for posting "genocide is bad" with one even calling it a "fascist dogwhistle."

"Are we the baddies?" moment.

Oh, right. Now I follow.

Yeah, the Biden supporters are all doing ridiculous mental gymnastics. I'm not sure I've seen mental gymnastics like this outside of a cult.
