I think your metaphor with Omelas is perfect, actually. I don't understand what the difficulty is in calling a thing by its name and and refusing to contribute further to actions that are profoundly wrong, as well as unpopular with your base. It's ridiculous and disgusting and if she loses it will not be because I and others like me didn't vote for her, but because she refused to do the simple and morally correct things she could have done to win our votes. I will never regret not supporting a genocide. I can't say the same thing for the DNC.

If she loses, Trump will encourage Netanyahu to ramp up. "Get the job done," so Jared can build hotels overlooking the beach. But you'll be pure.

If Kamala loses in November, it'll be her fault. Not Rachel's.
