Who do you vote for to put a stop to US support for the occupation of Syria? Which US politicians are you voting for to end the murderous sanctions against Cuba, Iran the DPRK and Venezuela? Which US politicians have pledged to quit murdering civilians in Yemen? Which US politicians support Palestinian human rights or at least want to quit bankrolling the open air prison they live in? Which US politicians support ending the concentration camps at our borders? Or slowing down all the refugee deportations to Latin American countries we've devastated with all of our "interventions?"

Oh wait, there are none with any power or possibility of getting serious power. Actually the only one putting a stop to the bloodshed in Yemen is China.

The fact is that you probably vote for the Democrats because you wouldn't be shameless enough to vote for Republicans and then claim that you vote against the US's mass murdering behavior, but the Democrats don't have any intentions of ending any of these atrocities and if you're claiming that they do you're either a gullible fool or a murder-supporting liar.

Maybe you vote Green? They might be less evil than the GOP and DNC but they will NEVER hold power so they have no impact on how evil the US is.
