If you have to vote for someone who supports genocide you’re already fucked.

You're right. America is fucked, but speeding up it's descent into fascism is bad praxis

[-] cecinestpasunbot@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago

Sure, but if you care about slowing the America’s descent into fascism, voting should not be your primary focus.

What does that mean, exactly?

Genocide is by far one of the worst crimes against humanity. If someone supports genocide they are morally corrupt to the core. They don’t care if you live or die. They will sell you out the moment it gives them a personal advantage. What kind of democracy forces it’s citizens to choose between two such people?

Americans generally don’t support genocide nor do they want a leader who would treat them like chess pieces. Unfortunately, the American electoral system is incapable of reflecting popular sentiment. If it can’t do that, then it’s not a real democracy. Change can only come to the US if people learn to wield their collective power in ways that don’t depend on the elections. Barring that, Americans are fucked regardless of who they vote for.

And what about gay, queer, or trans people? Have they not died enough? Because there absolutely is a difference between the parties for them.

[-] cecinestpasunbot@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago

Why, if the majority of Americans are against genocide, does democratic leadership support genocide? If they don’t think Palestinian lives matter why would they think gay, queer, and trans lives matter either? Vote for democrats all you want. I don’t care. Just don’t be so self righteous to think your vote meaningfully protects marginalized people.

Well at least we ended up with the felon rapist pedophile fraud who threatens to wipe civilizations from the face of the Earth while robbing us blind instead of the flawed but highly educated black woman with no criminal record.

We really dodged a bullet, right?
