        And the other road goes towards mega-turbo-genocide, boots on the ground and bombing iran (again) just for good measure.

        Your choice.

          We already said I don’t want Trump, so therefore the DNC needs to better appeal to their voterbase and cease the genocide, and swap Biden out. If they don’t, Trump will win, and you will have helped them by continuing to push for Democrat-genocide.

              “If you say that the DNC should stop committing genocide so more people vote for them, I will whine and complain, then support the genocide.”

                Yes, this is accurate. The only two options as of July 2024 are genocide or mega-turbo-genocide.

                I’d like to have peace on earth, but that’s not on the ballot. America is not ready to give up genocide cold turkey. Complaining about the genocide makes the mega-turbo-genocide more likely, which I don’t want.

                Shit situation, but I choose pragmatism.

                  Nope, the DNC can be pressured to stop, or Third Parties.

                  Sure is on the ballot for third party. America is ready to give up genocide, the DNC and GOP are not, because their donors want it. Pretending that Trump getting elected would drastically change Israel’s direction is vibes-based and not materially consistent, he would continue Biden’s genocide. You seem to want genocide, because you don’t want to protest.

                  Shit situation, but I choose pragmatism.

                  You don’t, you’re picking the path that has the least chance of winning, the DNC maintaining their genocide will result in Trump winning, guaranteed, regardless of you or I. You’re batting both for Genocide and a DNC loss to Trump.

                    I can protest because in my country I have like 5 parties with chances of participating in some form of coalition government.

                    If I had the choice of regular genocide or genocide ultra, I sure would try to avoid the genocide ultra. Which voting for a third party absolutely does not do.

                    Also, if you think the dnc can be pressured to stop as of today, I have a bridge I would like to sell you.
