    Ending genocide isn’t on the ballot this year, Trump is.

    Then fuck Joe Biden, fuck the Democrats, fuck this country and fuck this “Democracy”. You all can try to win the general on your own.

        Nope. I’m going to blame every shithead who voted for Biden in the 2020 primaries. Fuck those people. Fuck every single one of them.

      This is the perfect encapsulation of the “I’m not voting for an imperfect candidate” mindset. You’re ready to burn the house down, as if you weren’t in it too. (To be clear, “the house” in this metaphor is not just the US - fascist contagion will affect the entire world, just as Trump’s last presidency legitimized ultra-right politics in many countries.)

      Also, if you reflected a bit, you’d see that that reaction is reasoning from a privileged position assuming that democracy continues to exist whatever your actions. It’s also focusing entirely on one specific foreseeable result (not voting for Biden = less genocide from Biden) while ignoring an entire landscape of probable outcomes (Trump becomes dictator, ends free elections, commits even more genocide against both Americans and countries he feuds with, Israel sees Trump’s chaos and realizes nobody has attention to spare and increases its genocide, etc).

        We were perfectly clear in 2016 what was happening. People chose to vote for Biden in the 2020 primaries anyway. They deserve some portion of your anger.
