It's completely impossible to talk to the average voting american about politics because their brains are completely locked in a binary. If you criticize their guy, they will always bring up the other guy in comparison as if that makes it ok for their guy to be so awful. That's why the commentariat on TV and print media is so angry about RFKJr calling him a "spoiler" candidate. They cannot conceive of a third candidate, they can only frame it as if it's a spoiler for their preferred candidate and they will incessantly ask RFKJr "but why are you running, it's hurting Biden".
Liberalism is a nightmare.
I saw a thread on
praising the Macklemore Gaza song, in which he explicitly says he won't vote for Biden. Someone wrote a comment like "yeah, I won't vote for Biden either. Genocide is a dealbreaker" or something like that, and the comment had like 50 downvotes and a bunch of nerds going "what, you prefer Trump who will do genocide but on steroids??". Honestly hilarious that they were seemingly fine with the song, but the moment a "normal" had the nerve to repeat the lyrics their lib attack dog mindset kicked in.
Genocide is genocide. There isn't any "more genocide" or "less genocide". When you get to a point that you are saying "if you vote for the other guy, he will just genocide harder" like just log off from life. Sorry I'm not voting for eradicating a whole group of people regardless of which geriatric fuck the Dems like.
