both sides are bad. One is just infinitely worse.

People refusing to vote for the lesser of two evils is what got us the worse evil!

Blaming voters is just another way of wishing reality was different. Lots of people are telling you exactly how they are going to act but you are asking those without power to accommodate those with power. That's a choice and it says a lot about how you perceive power and it's authority.

What are you even talking about? Biden got elected and enabled the modern-day holocaust lol. There is no "lesser evil", there are many heads to the same hydra: capitalism.

Uhh yeah Biden bad but things would be less bad if Harris had won, doesn't make her good, what point are you trying to make

Less bad for you, maybe. Ask the people murdered by the Genocide Joe - Holocaust Harris administration if things would've been better for them. Ask the survivors if Harris being elected will bring back their dead family.

The point I'm trying to make is that you are unconsciously a white supremacist (yes, even if you are not white) who is willing to sign your name off to endorse the ethnic-based mass-murder of brown people overseas in order to protect your own privilege and comfort. That's "lesser evil". Try fighting all evil instead.

Aside from all that, Harris promised the "most lethal" military in the world - that means one thing, "killing the most people" - so on top of addressing your weak, white supremacist premise, I'm going to have to disagree with your weak liberal conclusion as well.

Thank you for having critical thinking skills and the patience to actually type it out for people who most likely won't even bother to read it in good faith.

lol yeah I used to do audio transcription so I have like a ~100 WPM typing rate... I can waste some internet words

I have neuropathy that has affected my fingers, my PC is set up on a coffee table in a corner cause that's the only space I have for it, and I usually only browse through Boost on my phone anyways. So, typing things out is a pain and I usually just point to authors and books to read.

well fuck me for prioritizing the genocides happening in my own country over the genocides happening on the other side of the planet.

edit: responded to the wrong comment, but the one I meant to respond to was also by you so I'm leaving it.

What's happening in America is terrible but if you're comparing it to what is happening in Palestine as being even close to equivalent, you are a chronically out-of-touch and overprivileged liberal.
