      Donald Trump is Genocide at home and abroad.

      Joe Biden is “only” Genocide abroad, and probably less of it.

      Therefore, a vote for Joe Biden is a Vote against genocide.

      No, it doesn’t matter that he’s an active participant in the apparatus that’s creating the genocide, because if he’s in office there’s less genocide. Which is the important part, and pretending otherwise is sophistry. If you abstain from voting, you are increasing the likelihood of more genocide and if you discourage others from voting, you are an active participant in the overall social apparatus that is probabilistically increasing the amount of genocide.

      The utility calculation is dead simple: more votes for Biden in key states makes more genocide less likely, and discouraging people from voting for Biden makes more genocide more likely. Therefore, discouraging people from voting for Biden is a pro-genocide strategy and voting for Biden in battleground states is an anti-genocide strategy. You should vote for Biden unless you live in a solid blue state, and even then it’s not a bad idea.

      TLDR: if you encourage people to not vote for Biden, that’s supporting genocide. Accelerationism never works for us.

        No.

        I’m going to not support the genocide and I’m going to accomplish this by not voting for the parties and candidates supporting it directly.

        I’m not going to make a utility calculation. I’m not going to try to participate less in the probabilistic social apparatus.

        I’m going to vote for a party and candidate that didn’t do a genocide and isn’t going to do a genocide.

            I’m afraid you’re confused. Not voting for the candidate literally doing genocide is the right thing.

            You know, because it’s right to not support genocide.

              Biden isn’t doing a genocide. He’s indirectly making it easier by supplying weapons to the people who are, but is also threatening to withhold them if they continue. It’d be best if you think about the situation instead of blindly criticizing the admittedly bad president.

              There’s a lot to criticize Biden for. Part of that is him not doing enough to prevent genocide, but if that’s the same as literally doing genocide, then by telling people it’s wrong to vote for him you are also committing genocide, because you are actively fighting against people trying to mitigate 3 genocides, including the one you’re upset about.
