I cannot in good conscious as a cis straight man tell my non binary partner that they need to be the sacrifice to the political statement of "sticking it to the libs".

Holy shit, I missed this before. You are right now a cis straight man telling me, a non binary person, that the current climate isn't an increase in harm. You are telling me that what Biden is doing is acceptable.
I didn't want to pull that card, because it does not matter wether or not I personally experience the direct effects of the obvious fascist, but you pulled that card. Lol, lmao even.

I am not saying shit didn't get worse under Biden. I am saying between Biden and trump that I believe it would be worse under trump and I do not see it within my rights as a group that wouldn't be targeted to cross my arms and say that I won't participate and risk people who would be targeted. I cannot in my own mind be okay with that. It's not my choice. I'm sorry that I implied moral superiority for this mindset. I understand this is my own personal hangup and I got emotional and argumentive. Sorry.

You are not sorry. It is painfully obvious what you are. This high road act isn't fooling anyone. If you actually were sorry, then you'd have listened and done some self-crit. You wouldn't try to diminish the discussion, you would not continue the same question despite having it answered several times, you would engage with the arguments presented or shut the fuck up. You would respect it when you were asked not to take the mantle of friend or comrade upon you. You would actually attempt to understand instead of repeating tired lib-cliches. You wouldn't attempt to pull several sad debatebro rhetorical tricks. You would reconsider instead of all the sanctimonious pearl clutching you've been attempting.
Instead you chose to misgender me.
Fuck you, you are not fooling anyone.
