You're viewing a single thread.
The world's going to be so fucked when all the "Fuck Biden" liberals move aside for Trump to do even more harm to the middle east.
No blame for the party leadership that makes itself so unappealing to voters?
They're not mutually exclusive. The real problem is that with FPTP, we're just going to keep voting these assholes into office.
Right now, the left doesn't really have a choice other than settling for less genocide. Voting any other way in this system is voting for more
I'll never vote for any kind or amount of genocide. Clock's ticking if Biden wants the anti-genocide vote.
Your principles are sound, but not voting in any election is imo equivalent to voting for whoever wins. If that turns out to be Trump your moral high ground has no basis because you actively enabled that result.
Voting for a candidate doesn't have to mean endorsing their entire being, it can be for many reasons, most noteably tactical voting to ensure the least bad outcome.
This isn't a matter of disagreeing with this or that policy of a candidate. This is genocide. I don't need to agree 100% with a candidate to vote for them, but I do have a limit and if anything exceeds it, it's genocide.
Whether you like it or not, refusing to vote for "less genocide" under FPTP is a step towards "more genocide".
I get the sentiment, nobody likes what FPTP has done for our options when voting, but refusing to play the system isn't the grand stand you think it is.
I refuse to participate in a system that forces me to choose between two genocides. There is no victory worth giving political backing to a genocide. A system so evil cannot be redeemed.
Not voting is still participating in the system because you live with the results, sorry mate. You don't get to opt out then absolve yourself of guilt from the result if its the worst case.
Oh I'll still be guilty of paying taxes, and of not doing more, but I won't be guilty of voting for a genocidaire. Call it a boycott, call it conscientious objection, call it whatever you want, but I won't sign my name to a genocide.
The pro-"more genocide" party appreciates your unwillingness to push back
The "more genocide" party appreciates your uncritical vote.
Shit is so complicated right now. Saying "Fuck Joe Biden vote 3rd party" is such a massive oversimplification of how the world works. And, IMO will only do more harm to the world.
You honestly think this is what Joe Biden wants? You think he has any actual control over this situation? Israel is going to do what it's going to do regardless of what Biden says or does.
Yes, let's put the orange potato back in office; who moved the US embassy and also assassinated a high ranking Iranian official. He would love another middle east war. All because the skeleton that has zero actual control isn't burning all his bridges.
He doesn't have to pour gas on the fire.
Pouring gas on a volcano
Why shouldn't I think this is what Joe Biden wants? What actions has he ever taken to show otherwise? It's not complicated to me at all. Biden is actively supporting/arming/encouraging genocide. He is giving material aid and political cover at the UN. I could never ever sign my name in support of such a monster. He, more than any single other person in the world could stop this genocide right now. The fact that he won't do so even though his inaction seriously jeopardizes his reelection is insane. Get ready for what comes next.
Agreed. I’m fucking pissed that Biden has done so little to in the public eye to fix this problem. Now countless young people are going to hand Trump a victory to do even worse. Then what?
Fascism.
Fascism in the USA is next if Trump becomes president again.
Then you get in the streets.
