    Nobody said that, neither choice is going to solve it so it’s better to abandon both if genocide is a red line for you.

            There are currently armed militias targeting bureaucrats for violence due to Republican misinformation. How many more escalations really remain before a full-blown civil war?

            I’m not advocating for revolution, but it certainly seems more likely than the Democrats dropping their unwavering support for Israel.

              There have always been armed militias targeting the federal government. You know who those armed militias support for President? You know which candidate would welcome those armed militias?

                I don’t disagree, homey. Seems like the militias are going to be a growing problem regardless of the election. What we disagree on here is the solution.

                For me, the solution is for the Dems to call the genocide what it is and force a ceasefire.

                I’m not judging people for pulling the only lever the US system gives them. I don’t advocate for voting for Trump and don’t recommend anyone does, but I do understand how some people might choose to vote against the people who are currently bombing them with the hope that the only other option won’t.

                  You seem to be rare, on the online left.
