    Yeah, because that’s stupid. Not voting for Biden makes a Trump win that much more likely and if you think he’s not gonna fund genocide, you might actually be living in an alternate reality. He’ll also do his level best to ensure Russia takes over Ukraine, hurt women domestically, do as much damage to the LGBTQ+ community as possible, trash the economy for anyone not ultra wealthy, and so on. It’s not an exaggeration to say that a second Trump presidency would be catastrophic, but hey, you show Biden on this one issue, buddy. Good for you for not being able to see the bigger picture and sticking to your principles at the expense of a lot of other people.

      Trump would 1000% be worse, but the silver lining of him becoming president is that liberals would suddenly have enough of a spine to say that genocide is a bad thing since trump would be at the helm instead of biden.

        Because people who say they’re not voting for Biden because of the genocide are almost never Trump voters in the first place, so Trump isn’t losing anything.

        Because people that don’t like trump will be more likely to not vote at all than republicans.

          So your problem is voter engagement, if you won’t work on a better candidate, then you better work on getting people who don’t mind supporting genocidal actions on your team.

          You guys don’t want to run a better candidate, so you better start appealing to the lowest common denominator that you can.

          Maybe offer them money, every time I hear about Biden’s actions supporting genocidal actions someone brings up the economy.

          Maybe you should just bribe them, it shouldn’t be that hard for you to find people that care more about money than human lives on your side

            If you are voting for Trump then you are supporting genocidal actions as well, what do you mean?

              I mean don’t support genocide ever I don’t care what your two choices heart if your choices are supporting genocide in supporting genocide, then you don’t participate in that system.

              Then maybe next time people will be sick of the shit show that happens whenever they support a genocide and not do it again so they’ll have support of y’know regular people.

          >Every Biden vote cancels a trump vote. But every trump vote doesn’t necessarily cancel a Biden vote.

          this has no internal logical consistency
