      I DON’T HAVE A CHOICE!!!

      The options are: genocide or genocide.

      Voting anything other than Harris is STILL A VOTE FOR GENOCIDE.

      Refusing to vote for Harris will not stop the genocide.

      Refusing to vote at all will not stop the genocide.

      WE ARE FUCKING BACKED INTO A CORNER.

      Sorry, I’ve got to be pragmatic here. I hate it, but protest votes are fucking stupid in this system.

          Right? Why should the U.S. continue existing if it’s an unstoppable genocidal state?

        You can chose to dip you hands in the blood of thousands of dead children by activelly rewarding a candidate who is enabling their murder, or you can chose not to.

        Given the lack of Democracy in the American system, that means that you either participate hence end up with blood on your hands no matter which of the two electable candidates you vote for or do not participate.The choices of others who do participate are irrelevant for that decision.

        Justifying your choice of supporting a enabler of child murder candidate because others might chose the candidate you dislike the most and hence makes you fear for yourself, is not the high moral standpoint you seem to think it is.

        Absolutely, it’s a though choice. However this preaching you and those like you are doing about “Not voting is a vote for Trump” is not done from the top of a Moral High Horse, it’s from the top of the pile of the bloody bones of tens of thousands of murdered children which is still growing, and driven by at best selfish self-preservation not any kind of selfless moral principle.

        So spare us the bullshit.

        As a non-american: I don’t care about your electoral system. My gf is crying coz her friends are getting bombed with white phosphorus.

        Go fix your fucking country and stop supporting genocide.
