You vote for the options you have, not the options you want. It was your choice, not the Democrats's fault.

- sporkxrocket 1y agoNot voting for those committing genocide is an option I have and will take every time. If the democrats want my vote, they know how to win it.
- fatbird 1y agoGiven a choice between a lesser and a greater evil, you abstained. The welfare of Palestinians is not your priority.
- sporkxrocket 1y agoThis type of false rhetoric to support genocide makes me feel even more confident in my decision. Want my vote? Oppose Israel. It’s as simple as that. People who commit genocide have no moral high ground.
- fatbird 1y agoSometimes your vote isn't to support something, it's to limit the damage.
- sporkxrocket 1y agoMy vote for no one is to limit damage. It’s critical that we end Zionism and not supporting Zionists is the best way to do that. It’s incredible the lengths democrats will go to defend Israel. It’s time to move on (and start winning elections).
- BriggyDwiggs42 1y agoIt’s not about moral fucking high ground, it’s about actual death and dismemberment that is actually happening that wouldn’t have. I can vote for the nazi that kills 100 jews, the nazi that kills 500, or vote for nobody; show me any alternative or else i gotta get in the booth for the first guy. Anything else is pretentious moralizing that costs lives.
- sporkxrocket 1y agoVoting for Nazis makes you a Nazi.
- fatbird 1y agoTo paraphrase you, I'm sure the tens of thousands of extra Palestinians killed by "your team" would beg to differ.
- sporkxrocket 1y agoBiden was killing Palestinians just as fast as Trump. Neither of which are my team.
- BriggyDwiggs42 1y agoIn this hypothetical “becoming a nazi” means I kill 400 less jews. Pretty shit nazi
- sporkxrocket 1y agoExcept that's not what's happened. Biden and Trump are killing an equal number of Palestinians. Stop asking people to support your genocidal candidates and start demanding better from your party or be relegated to the dustbin of history.
- BriggyDwiggs42 1y agoThe race was between Kamala and Trump. If you legitimately believe Kamala winning would have made zero difference to the wellbeing of any Palestinians, I don’t know what to say. >start demanding better from your party or be relegated to the dustbin of history. Stop building strawmen and explain what I could have done on election day for the couple hours spent on voting that would have been more useful for the Palestinians than voting for Kamala, and explain why.
