I like how none of this giant wall of text contests that you're talking about votes from an insulated place of privilege. You'll also notice that I never tried to influence who you vote for, I simply asked about why you voted that way. I let you explain why you would or would not be losing less if Kamala had won. (I will say thought, If you feel penned in when asked to explain your thoughts, it might be a sign they require more consideration.)

I don't give a shit how you vote, I just wanted to see the thought process behind folks who obstinately refuse to acknowledge that things are on a continuum, instead viewing things on a binary level. I want to talk to someone that believes so hard they they were willing to sacrifice, not someone to whom a vote is inconsequential no matter what.

You know how in flatland, the 1d dot cannot be blamed for not knowing there exists higher dimensions?

To your life experience, the candidates were genuinely are the same. That is both enviable and pitiful.

Cheers, have a good day.
