Harm Reduction Rule - eviltoast

There are no ethical choices under first-past-the-post voting. We must instead make a decision that reduces the most harm.

    Ukraine’s war will continue regardless.

    No, Russia will conquer Ukraine if someone doesn’t support them. Trump isn’t going to support Ukraine. Biden will.

    The Palestinian genocide will continue regardless.

    No, Trump will encourage Israel to finish the genocide.

    Taiwan isn’t under any threat of being killed by the millions at the moment, so I’m not even sure how he would “save” them?..

    From China who famously wants to invade Taiwan.

    No 😂. Look up a list of the most “donations” taken from Israel by any political candidate. Did you genuinely not look into things like this before defending him with a shitty Sonic meme?

    Oh, you meant donations he received. Yeah, most US politicians have through AIPAC. I had no idea what you were talking about.

    This is also wrong. You are allowing genocide to continue by agreeing with the current status-quo. Acting like voting in the same man taking in millions to kill over 100,000 brown people (most of which are women and children) will somehow SAVE Palestine (I noticed you used “Gaza” there by mistake, nbd I fixed that for you) is so painfully ignorant it just has to be on purpose.

    No, Trump will encourage Israel to finish the genocide. All Palestinians in Gaza, the West Bank, and Israel will be killed. Gaza is just one part of Palestine, not the whole thing. edit: typo

          The lot of you are going to be so surprised when your posturing leaves you confused/scared under the dumb orange man:

          Why go further left when you can shoot yourself in the foot and go further right?

          It didn’t warrant a response because, again, it’s entirely state-narrative dribble coupled with an army of upvote-bots.

          Voting for 99% fascism over 100% fascism isn’t really the “gotcha” you think it is ;)

          In regards to the Palestinian state, they likely won’t even be alive by the time Biden loses, so it’s really a moot point regardless…

          Enjoy the fall comrades ✌️

            We won’t be confused, we’ll know people like you allowed it to happen.

            If you think throwing away your vote means going further left, then I have a bridge to sell you.

              Legit nobody has correctly identified why the people in this thread are completely avoiding using the word “Palestine” and are instead using “Gaza.”

              You’re either a bot (AI profile picture, so it seems fairly likely), or you’re posturing for whomever is paying you to sit in that chair and flame lefties instead of actually, idk, changing the policies of your genocidal party.

              No mate, you will be why it falls.

              2016 round-2-electric-boogaloo is going to suck for those of you dumb enough to remain in your doomed country after all of this shit.

              Enjoy the fall comrades ✌️

                Lmao the person you couldn’t argue against did exactly that.

                Imagine you spent the effort you are here petulantly calling me a bot trying to spin up an actual counter-argument.

                Your little head would probably explode.
