      LOL saying “biden did a good thing” is not supporting genocide, no matter how hard some people wish it were. as others have said, you CAN oppose some of a person’s actions and praise others.

      i will add though, for THIS election, trying to convince people that they’re “supporting genocide” by voting at all is not only an egregiously, laughably flawed argument, but it’s making things worse, not better

        You’re literally making a strawman argument, no where in any of my comments did I say people shouldnt vote. You are intentionally misrepresenting

          that’s what’s called a ‘freudian slip’

            I think that all eligible voters should vote for candidates who do not support genocide. Do you support genocide?

              And I think everyone should vote against fascism. Can you please stop this bullshit, all you’re doing is pushing an agenda designed to get Trump to win and it’s honestly so exhausting.

                  Great. Then stop pushing an anti-Democrat and defeatist message any chance you get. I don’t know what to tell ya?

              am i voting for harris? yes. was i going to vote for biden? yes.

              do i support genocide? no.

              but your “solution” of vote third party, or don’t vote at all, is a vote that is NOT canceling out a trump vote. am i accusing you of supporting genocide? or fascism? even though those arguments could be made, easily-- no, i’m not. do what you will, but trying to accuse people of supporting genocide because they vote D is some trumpy fucking bullshit

                Never did I mention voting third party or abstaining, you’re putting words in my mouth again. Our politicians answer to us, if we demand an anti-genocide platform then they must comply or face their fate
