      Because genocide plus fascism is worse than genocide alone. Is this even a real question or are you just trolling?

      The alternative is the same genocide, plus even more of it in more places, most likely. Including right here on American soil.

        If a dog pisses on the floor and you give them a treat they are gonna think it’s ok to piss on the floor.

        Biden could come out and say I could kill 30k Palestinians and my supporters will say the other guy is more dangerous…

          These aren’t dogs, they’re people with political power. You’d have to be a moron to think a slap on the wrist is worth the actual collapse of democracy.

      Rebuilding the US into a dictatorship seems like something, that should be avoided. But then I am not a US citizen.

          Yeah so why not just hop in bed with actual dictatorship?

          Just look at Russia; it’s going so well for them! No genocides at all and it solved all of their problems with capitalism!

          And they have shopping carts!!! Let’s be Russia!

      Do you honestly believe that trump wouldn’t also support that genocide? Netanyahu is a longtime friend and supporter of trump’s.

      Sadly we are stuck with a “lesser of two evils” situation - and Biden, while supporting evil, is still less evil (by far) than trump.

        What Trump might do is irrelevant, instead of focusing on what ifs, people should be focusing on right now.

          What an enormously stupid thing to say! What a candidate might do while in office is literally how you decide your vote…

                The thread you are commenting on did exactly that

                  Oh so you just can’t read, got it. You’re aware that genocide is not the topic of this thread right? It’s about who to vote for and sadly that’s not a determining factor. But go on trying to pretend everyone is having the conversation you’d prefer.

      Lesser evil is still evil, it really is a testament to how bad things have gotten.

      Neither option cares or would actually change much about the atrocities.
