    I love that your defense here is: “Look at that, you’re just as big of a piece of shit as we are.”

    But in reality, they’re objectively more moral than you are in voting against genocide. That it may happen anyway doesn’t change that.

      By not voting, you voted for genocide under Trump. There is no neutrality against fascism, and there is no nonparticipation. You’re either against them or you’re with them.

        Genocide under Trump vs. genocide under Biden isn’t a big moral difference. Your argument is supposed to be that the other moral issues are critically important, not that the flavor of genocides are important.

          That is my argument, which you know, which is why you’re trying to pretend it isn’t. Does this normally work on people or something?

      Is it really “voting against genocide” when they voted against all the arms shipment pauses that are now being overturned? They voted against an administration, that administration lost, and now the winner has hit the ground running making the genocide immediately worse. What’s “objectively more moral” about increasing arms shipments to genociders?
