    there’s “administration aiding a genocide, but also doing so because they’re being lied to by israel, who also has a massive propaganda campaign to manipulate americans into supporting them…”

    versus

    Project 2025 and their plans of a fascist dictatorship right here, complete with a genocide of trans people and hispanics… and muslims… AND a continuation of supporting israel…
    oh and aiding russians commiting genocide in ukraine.

          Not voting is letting trump have an easier time at victory

          The core of the GOP’s strategy for holding on to power is the disenfranchisement of voters who are opposed to them. Not voting (or voting third party) is self-disenfranchisement and doing the GOP’s work for them.

            Nobody running for president, ever, has deserved the office. I sincerely believe, as Douglas Adams so eloquently put, that “those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it.”

            I can’t think of any point in recent history where the choice is of who is deserving for office. The choice is, and has always been, who is the least undeserving of office (or the spoiler candidate). This year, I think it’s pretty obvious who is least undeserving of office.

            The choice of who is deserving for office is reserved for everyone else further down the ballot.

        What happens in a FPTP system with only 2 viable parties when everyone doesn’t vote for the least maniacal of the two?

        Who do you think wins that bout?

      Stop acting like Biden is just being lied to by Israel and is some helpless victim. He is absolutely responsible for his continued allowance of the genocide of Palestinians. Hold your politicians to a higher standard.

        He is responsible, though I don’t expect a different response from the majority of people in Washington. I hope regret about his continued complicity in genocide continues to weigh heavily on his shoulders.

        I believe only 2 points about Palestine in this election:

        1. Trump will be worse for Palestine than Biden.

        2. Biden is likelier to switch positions on Palestine than Trump.

        When I look at everything else Trump endangers on top of Palestine, it’s not even a decision.

      So the CIA, NSA, … are just a bunch of idiots that can’t have info on their own? Then why spend so much money on them?
