    “Trump worse” is somehow a gotcha, when there isn’t any difference

    The only way you can reach this conclusion is through intellectual dishonesty.

      Okay, show me how the two candidates are worse or better in the long term.

      Candidate A is letting genocide happen, sends weapons, doesn’t listen to the voters. Result is many dead people, many starving people and in 5 years - no Palestine.

      Candidate B is letting genocide happen and encouraging it in speeches. Sends weapons. Result is many dead people, many starving people and in 4 years - no Palestine.

      It’s the same shit. Result is - no Palestine. No Palestinians. No matter if democrats win or republicans do. So yeah, they are exactly the same.

      The only arguments democrats have is either copium (that Harris would somehow stop it) which is proven to be false by the fact that they lost the election and don’t have to worry about looking bad and they still send shit to Israel and support the genocide with weapons. Or that you should vote for them despite your views and despite them not earning your vote - to which I can tell you to vote Trump because he too didn’t do what you want him to do, so you should be fine with that.

      “The only way you can reach this conclusion is through intellectual dishonesty.”

      Seeing people like yourself push for utilitarian philosophy unironically is a pretty striking indictment of the US education system.
