Do you prefer genocide or more genocide and the end of democracy? That’s where we are at right now.
Wow, sounds like a shitty failure of a system that I would be an absolute rube to support in any way.
Like what, vote for Trump?
The answer surely isn't "vote for joe no matter what he does, no line is too far"
Question, who should someone who wants to end the genocide, vote for? What is your suggestion? How and why would that vote change the situation for the better? How likelihood is the desired outcome?
You should be protesting against the war and show solidarity with others doing the same
Panic posting about protestors endangering an election is counter effectual; if you want to help you can start by keeping your mouth shut about the election in the context of the protest.
Thanks for the advice but it doesn't answer my questions.
It also ignores the context of the conversation. The commenter seems to be implying that you shouldn't vote for Biden. And I would like to hear their suggestion.
There is no option to end the genocide on the ballot in November, that's the point. Your time is better spent pushing one of the options that is on the ballot towards ending support.
I am happy to see your passion. And I agree with you but I am asking the person, whom I should be voting for in their opinion. I want to hear THEIR opinion. Thanks.
Then send them a DM and stop wasting everyone's time with your leading and disingenuous questions.
You understand that responding in Public to a public discourse is the default unless you want to hide something.
Blaming me for "wasting everyone's time" for asking someone else a question in public in response to that person's public statement, how odd.
How is it leading and disingenuous to ask someone about their opinion on an issue? Especially if I don't limit their options what so ever. I guess it is leading if you already think it is disingenuous, which would raise the question "what makes you think that?". But I don't want to waste your time like you wasted mine and everyone else's by responding to a question that you didn't attempt to even answer and wasn't asked to you either.
If you don't want someone else answering your open question on a public forum, then don't place that question on an open forum. Doing so makes it look like you're not actually asking the question so that it's answered, you're asking it to score rhetorical points against an opponent.
But I don’t want to waste your time like you wasted mine and everyone else’s by responding to a question that you didn’t attempt to even answer and wasn’t asked to you either.
Lmao, idk I think I did answer it, you just didn't like it because it wasn't within the binary you were trying to frame the issue through (even though you totally weren't trying to 'limit their options what so ever')
But I don’t want to waste your time like you wasted mine
If you think i'm wasting your time you can block me.
I asked for whom to vote from a ending the genocide perspective and why that. You "answered" by telling me what I should be doing outside of voting.
That is like someone asks you how they could fix their dietary habits and you tell them to do sports. Sports are probably a good advice but it isn't helping them to fix their dietary habits. It is missing the point. It isn't answering the question.
I am not gonna bother with your rhetorical points insult, as it is based in the assumption that I don't want an answer because I don't accept answers that fail to answer the question.
Whether or not, a question is answered, is a pretty binary issue. but I think you mean the election with 7(?) candidates. Of which I would accept any as a response, if one was given. I am not sure about how that is binary though.
Oh the wasting time stuff was to point out the absurd nature of your impaction that I am wasting anyone's time by asking a question that they can ignore, compared to bothering someone who is actively looking for an answer with non-answers.
I asked for whom to vote from a ending the genocide perspective and why that. You “answered” by telling me what I should be doing outside of voting.
Because you can't end a genocide by voting, that's why it's a disingenuous question and I think you know that. You can leverage a vote to push for it, but none of the candidates are beholden to doing jack shit once they're actually in office even if they claim to support ending it, so the best course of action is to pressure the one that's in office now.
That's the point of those of us who say it doesn't matter who you vote for in the context of ending Palestinian genocide - it wouldn't change the outcome without outside action regardless.
wasting anyone’s time by asking a question that they can ignore, compared to bothering someone who is actively looking for an answer with non-answers.
You're wasting people's time who would happily explain the perspective to you if not for the deliberate attempt to frame the question around electoral politics.
i'm definitely going to block you, you disingenuous fuck.
Thanks.
The answer is "vote for Joe despite him not doing more to aid Gaza, because the only alternative is far, far worse".
Why should anyone support the continuation of a system that offers this as the best available choice?
