lesser of two evils - Lemmy.ca

21 day old account. Most posts are about not voting in the election to support Palestine. While what’s happening in Gaza is genocide, this account smells like a Russian shill trying to spread FUD in the form of memes. The key part of diplomacy is not running around telling everyone what’s being discussed in private. We shouldn’t hear about potential deals until they are decided on. If Trump wins, he’ll do the same thing Israel is currently doing to eliminate Hamas - which is to go through the Palestinian people.
I voted Uncommitted, if not voting for a genocider is really gonna get Trump elected maybe Biden should start listening to someone other than the demonic Beau Biden lookalikes running around the oval office.
I’m glad you voted your heart in the primary. But I also really hope you are smart enough to vote him in the general.
That really depends on if the Democrats are actually ride or die on this whole genocide thing.

Democrats are more likely to waver on the Palestinian genocide then the Republicans. But even assuming that they have the exact same positions, Republicans still have measurably worse positions on pretty much everything else.

I enjoy enough privilege to not be troubled by Republican policies, but many of my comrades do not enjoy that same privilege. I vote on their behalf too.

Republicans are worse on everything else, but at least when they’re running things into the ground democrats are actually motivated to take action- as opposed to when its their guy doing it and they all act like their shit doesn’t stink.

Biden eliminated all the supports + eviction protections from covid. If Trump was trying to “end COVID” with 9/11s of deaths happening every month do you really think the Democrats would just be going along with it?

You aren’t explicitly saying a Trump presidency would be better for America, but do you understand that most people will take your comment to mean that?
Most people are so into the team sports that anything critical of team blue is treated like a religious heresy.
There’s a large subcategory of leftists who refuse to say whether Trump or Biden would be a better president. If you feel you aren’t treated with sufficient charitability, you should put the blame squarely on their shoulders.
I don’t really care about people I don’t like treating me charitably, I want democrats to stop being absolute dogshit and I don’t see how rewarding them with a vote does that.

Hey guy, I’m not worried. If you had some common sense, you might be worried though. “Treating me charitably”? Have you read the news at all? The shit going on right now is precursor to throwing people in concentration camps type shit.

So guy, unless you’re a white conservative male, you might not be too keen on Trump winning.

1 not a guy

2 learn how to read, the context “treating me charitably” was me quoting the person I was responding to, who said he was “treating me charitably” as in he was allegedly listening to what I was saying.

3 I don’t respond to threats, and if you’re threatening me that if I don’t vote for the genocide guy that all nonwhites are getting their rights taken away. That doesn’t distinguish you from them, nor provide me a reason to view your party as a credible opposition.

Your views on this are incredibly unappealing and flawed at a base level. It’s clear you’re thinking with your heart instead of your brain. I commend your stance and want to make the world better but you’re moreso trying to spite a guy you don’t approve of and the most likely outcome of acting on this spite is a harsher genocide in Palestine.

You already know this, of course.

I don’t respond to people threatening me with ‘how much worse’ the other guy is, your guy is the one trying to pass the republican border bill, and has made it extremely clear that they’re giving Israel a blank check.

I don’t care about American lives more than I care about Palestinian lives. I don’t approve of genocide, and I’m not voting for people who are enabling one.

“Don’t get in those train cars, they go to a gas chamber. Nazis just enacted the final solution.”

“Uh ek-SQUEEZE me? Sounds like you’re trying to threaten me, sweaty. And the Nazis are no worse than the SPD.”

I don’t view the Democrats as a credible opposition to rising christofascism, particularly when they’re completely unreachable on the genocide they’re participating in.

Oh numbers!

  • Don’t care, and neither do the ones that will destroy you and yours if you get Trump elected.

  • Same as one

  • Same as one

  • This is boring your blocked, your gross stupidity is boring.

    You’re literally a fascist
