    We have to support the genocide over there so we don’t have a genocide over here!

      Unironically, yes. What’s your argument, that you are so against 1 genocide that you will enable a 2nd? I don’t like that our choice is enabling 1 slaughter or 2, but how in the deranged hell do you think choosing more slaughter gives you the moral high ground?

        “I don’t believe you have to be a Jew to be a Zionist, and I am a Zionist.” - Joe Biden

        These are both deranged genocide supporting people. I won’t cast a vote for either of them. I am hoping to vote for the PSL if they can get on the ballot. I live in a state that has consistently supported Trump by large margins due to our terrible electoral system.

        Organizing in your local community for the capabilities of mutual aid and mutual defense are more valuable than a vote for Joe Biden in fighting the creeping fascism of the USA.

          I would love to see a viable third option, but you know it’s wishful thinking at best for 2024. Trying to send a message with your vote is not worth it, and I say this from personal experience.

          I’ll say the same thing I just said to the other guy. I truly hope you don’t get the chance to regret your inaction contributing to a second Trump presidency, the same way that I regret my inaction that led to his first.

            My vote doesn’t matter because our electoral system sucks! How do you not get that? My state is red, it’s not changing for Joe no matter how HARD I VOTE!

            That’s like the entire point of voting though.
