    Choosing between genocide or mean tweet orange guy? Yeah totally immature. How dare we dislike genocide.

      Mean tweet orange guy also supports the genocide. With the added caveat that he wpuld like to expedite this genocide because not enough people are dying.

            So I can live with the maturity level of seeing two awful candidates and choosing not to choose either one. I feel like my own point still stands, that the distinction between fascism and genocide shouldn’t be a thing I have to choose to live with.

            I don’t like Trump, and I won’t be voting for him, but I also don’t like the precedents set by Biden in a few areas, and his inability to reign in the escalation in Gaza despite having the levers available to pull to immediately ease immense human suffering.

            If there was a candidate like say, Obama, available to vote for this would be easy and straightforward. A bumbling senile idiot/puppet or a hostile fascist dictator. Don’t lump me in with either of the massive pools of idiots that put us here. I’m proud to be outside of this.

              The thing is one is still objectively better than the another. If you choose not to support the lesser evil, you are basically supporting the worst case scenario.

              Edit: You need to accept the fact that consensus is oftentimes not possible and have to deal with a compromise.

              if there was a candidate like say, Obama

              What? You went through 8 years of hope and change, got 4 years of Trump - then go right back to thinking hope and change?

              I’m not gonna use my brain to think about the rest of what you’ve said.
