    You said this:

    Voters simply don’t care about Gaza anywhere near as much as they care about literally everything else:

    It shows up in poll after poll after poll. With the exception of chronically online lemmings and less than 10% of Democratic voters, nobody else really cares.

      Yes I did. Your powers of observation are uncanny.

      So again, what does the 2020 margin of victory have to do with the purported “main source of discontent” among voters, which isn’t borne out by polling data?

        I didn’t say it was the main source of discontent. I just think that being able to win the election is the most important thing. It doesn’t have to be the “main” source to cause the problem we’re all talking about.

          I didn’t say you did. I corrected someone else, and you responded to me. So again, how is your response relevant to me correcting someone else’s factual inaccuracy?

            I obviously mistook this as a conversation about the upcoming election and Biden’s chances, but I can see now that you are purely interested in correcting someone about this one thing, and not about whether or not that has an important impact on Biden’s chances.

            Yes wow you’re right it isn’t the “main” source of the discontent. Congratulations.

              Yes, I corrected someone’s factual inaccuracy. If you want to respond to things that other people are currently talking about, be my guest.
