    Did you even read anything I wrote.

    The outcome of the election is going to be Trump or Biden. NOBODY ELSE IS GOING TO WIN.

    So given that you have to choose the person less likely to escalate the situation, the saner one of the two.

    I’m not saying it’s good I think it’s fucking abhorrent, but there is no choice.

    To be abundantly clear about my stance on Palestine. I am out every weekend protesting in solidarity with Palestine. I am spreading awareness of the issue wherever I can and I am taking direct action against the companies that support the genocide.

    Let me ask you this. What do you think is going to happen if you don’t vote?

      If a genocide is going to occur regardless of the vote, then the vote doesn’t matter.

      Let me ask you this. What do you think is going to happen if you don’t vote?

      In regards to what? The genocide? Project 2025? Healthcare?

      If people want to vote for Joe Biden to preserve LGBT and minority rights, that’s their choice. If someone wants to not vote for Biden because he is aiding in a genocide, that’s their choice.

      It’s egotistical to think that my priorities are more important than others.

        Dude people ain’t voting for Biden for any reason. They’re voting against the lunatic that tried to incite an insurrection. The dude that has the mentality of a child.

        That’s it. Trump is a sociopath and people don’t want him in charge of nuclear weapons.

        As to the rest of your comment. Yes you can do what you want but alls people are saying is Trump would far worse in every regard and not voting against him is basically saying your cool with that.

        Does that make sense? I don’t mean that in a condescending way, I’m really wanting to know if you understand my point of view and the consensus of this thread. And the majority of people.

        If you’re not voting Biden who are you voting for?

          If you want to me to say that I’m voting for Biden, I will. The question everyone should be asking themselves is why do they need that validation. Is it only okay to vote for Biden if everyone else does? If I change my mind in the next six months, and decide to vote for Cornel West or Jill Stein, is it not my choice? The people that have decided to not vote for Biden because of the genocide aren’t gonna be persuaded by randos pressuring them on the internet. It’s not their fault he is helping Israel do a genocide.

            I literally said in my last comment it is your choice do what you want.

            I’ve also covered, ad-nauseam, that the only person getting elected is a genocide supporting one and one of those is less dangerous than the other.

            How many times do you want to ask the same questions to get the same answer.

            I DONT SUPPORT GENOCIDE. I DO SUPPORT PALESTINE. ISRAEL IS AN APARTHEID STATE. WE THE PEOPLE ARE POWERLESS TO STOP IT. BIDEN OR TRUMP WILL WIN. BIDEN IS LESS FUCKING INSANE THAN TRUMP. BIDEN IS A GENOCIDE SUPPORTER.

            What more do you want me to say.

            I guess what hasn’t been said is you could get
