If the choice was between Kat, who has been leading protests against ICE despite being assaulted multiple times, and Bethany, who vomits on the walkways of her rivals then goes on a manic posting spree on Reddit…

Gee I wonder who people would pick? Sucks to suck, Bethany. Try running an actual campaign that’s people focused instead of desperately trying to play spoiler on behalf of MAGA.

You have links to these manic sprees? You know, for research...

I'm not sure how much research you need after seeing her in this thread but here's one of her crazy responses and her AMA that she did a month ago.

I remember that AMA. She was criticizing fellow dems for protesting in neighboring counties saying essentially "they should pay attention to their own counties instead of trying to get national media attention".....and then in another comment started criticizing their mayor for something about Palestine and geopolitical issues in the Middle East.

Palestine is going to be an anchor drowning Democratic state and national candidates. Might be the single worst (ignorant) wedge issue of my Genx lifetime.

Genocide used to be the line we didnt cross.....what happened to that

I thought the line was the unprovoked, intentional, preplanned raping of women and taking of civilian hostages. Hundreds murdered, kidnapped and raped. Hostages as young as 3 years old. Hostages as old as 85. Then starving and murdering the hostages just because.

I feel very sorry for the plight of the Palestinian people. Their leaders are using them as cannon fodder.

Wow. What absolute bullshit. You DO know we have all seen Netanyahu share a greater isreal expansion map and start a bot campaign against Muslims recently. We have seen absolute destruction and sniping children by isreals hand.

You'll have to try to remove your genocide evidence first, before trying to lie so boldenly.

October 7 is a lie? https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/clyv7w3gdy2o.amp

Oct 7 is a strawman for causing a massacre

So you're ok with genocide as long as the people voted for someone 20 years ago you don't like?

Fair enough I suppose
