        Ah, i misread your comment

        Then in response to the previous one, I would say they’re just a prime example of flawed logic.

        asking why be upset with them when there’s other people to be upset about is just whataboutism

        Like yes, all those others are also bad. Doesn’t mean I’m gonna cut them any slack.

          I don’t think so, many people didn’t vote, and leftists are an extreme minority in this country, so it’s certainly a choice to focus on them and not all non-voters.

          Like yes, all those others are also bad. Doesn’t mean I’m gonna cut them any slack.

          Who’s saying anything about cutting slack? Yes all non-voters are to blame, but the meme is about Pro-Palestinians causing the apocalypse, not non-voters.

          It’s not whataboutism to ask why one focuses intensely on a small minority, when you admit that the problem is beyond that minority.
