So no amount of parallel awfulness would prompt you to reject both parties? As an example, if the atrocities being visited on Gaza took place in America would that be enough?
The one you say reduces harm is detaining more people at the border than trump did and both aiding and denying a genocide.
When is it too far? What would be beyond the pale enough for you to turn your back on Biden?
I have to ask again: would you still vote for Biden instead of a third party if he were supplying weapons to and denying the bombing of American hospitals?
I know I sound like a broken record, but where’s the line?
If Joe Biden were blowing up American Hospitals than we’re well past the point where voting would accomplish anything. But he’s not doing that, he’s just selling arms to a longtime ally of America and not paying close enough attention to the reasons people are telling him to stop. Still bad, but…
Oh he’s only supplying weapons to a country committing a genocide and then denying that it’s a genocide in public.
I’m gonna ask some questions that will probably sound like accusations but I’m asking them to feel out who you are and what matters to you, not to accuse or harm:
Still bad but what?
So you wouldn’t support Biden if the genocide were happening to Palestinians on American soil, what about if it was French people being invaded and bombed by Israelis wielding American weapons? What if it was Libyans?
What if instead of pissing away the cost of any number of domestic programs in weapons shipments to israel, Biden was sending arms to russia to use on ukranians?
It’s a terible situation and I do not intend to imply otherwise, however at the end of the day. I am an American, and I need to think about what’s best for America.
Palestine is still gonna be in the shit if Biden is re-elected, and if Trump is re-elected they’ll be in more than just shit.
However, if Biden is re-elected, I don’t have to worry about ending up in a concentration camp for being trans.
You won’t get an answer, these people’s script is they have enormous latitude in calling people names, moving goalposts, and generally as much punching left as they can muster, but under absolutely no circumstance can they say -in any way, shape or form- that they won’t vote for the blue team.

If I’ve got two options and one of them reduces harm, and the other amplifies it, the only humane thing to do is the former.

What’s best for America is to make your voice heard is support of a genocide?
Palestine is not in the shit, its people are in the process of being genocided.
One of my favorite stories is the ones who walk away from omelas. It’s pretty good.
