    Devil I know vs the one I don’t.

    Run someone who doesn’t support killing innocent by people.

    Why is that so hard?

      Should be easy. Should be simple. Clearly isn’t. And you can’t change that. So what will you do?

      In first past the post, failing to vote is the same as a vote for the person you like least.

      You may not like the game, but even by not playing you’re playing.

        See you people like to say that, but I’m not opposing you. I’m just not supporting you.

        I could vote for trump, I can not vote, or I can vote for Biden.

        I could cancel out one of your votes, I could add to your vote or I can do neither.

        Do you see the difference now?

            Cool I will just vote for trump since it is all the same then.

            I don’t give a shit what you want to tell yourself to make you feel better about actively supporting genocide.

            Here is a radical fucking idea, run a fucking candidate who doesn’t support genocide.

            It won’t matter soon, all the people that matter are dying or dead already, after that people will just forget about it and them anyway, and then you guys will have your way about it.

            You are supporting the guaranteed death now, vs what might happen later, and the actual people now will pay the price for your hypothetical actions in the future.

              If you prefer the option of “genocide with a reduction of rights from my neighbors” more than “genocide alone”, then that’s you’re right as a citizen to choose it.

              And as much as you like to pretend that not voting somehow absolves you, it doesn’t. To truly not be liable you need to stop paying taxes. Otherwise your participation in our economy props up genocide.

                Once again I can not stop it but I can not give it my active support.

                All of my neighbors rights? What about the rights of children not to die? We might be able to roll anything he does back, you can not roll back death

                You ask me to support your hypothetical about what trump might do, I know what Biden is doing.

                Given the options of guaranteed genocide or potential, why not pick the non guaranteed option?
