    Do you really believe not voting for Biden deceases the likelihood of genocide in Gaza? Because the alternative seems so much worse in every way, both for Gaza and so many other massively important issues

        And instead, a genocide will still be on, and also more women will go to prison for seeking medical care, and also my LGBT friends will have their rights eroded even more, and also the new president will annoint more christofascist Godkings to the Supreme Court ensuring that any attempt to vote for an actual leftist in the future is impossible, and it’ll be fine, because at least you didn’t vote for the guy that wouldn’t have done all that extra awful shit

        A vote is not an endorsement, stop treating it like it is.

          Wow that all sounds awful. Biden should really try to win in order to prevent that.

          I suggest he make himself more appealing by being anti-genocide.

            Yeah, he should, and if he doesn’t, you still have to vote for him anyway, because the alternative is necessarily worse.

            It absolutely sucks that Democrats are able to make zero effort and get votes based solely on the fact that they aren’t Republicans, but that’s the way it is. Vote in primaries, fight to make Republicans adopt better policies so that Democrats have to react, and vote blue in November, because the alternative is half the people in the community we’re arguing in going to fucking jail for being trans.

                Then you get someone pro genocide anyways, but you get to hold your head real high when your friends die because they had an etopic pregnancy. Good job.

                    That won’t happen because you don’t have any friends who are women or you don’t have any friends in general? Because it absolutely will happen.

                    Maybe some mentally ill guy needs to kill himself in front of a pro-life rally for you to care first?
