    What is a ‘little genocide’? I thought your whole shtick was that genocide was genocide and ‘less’ is still genocide.

    Are you conceding that there are degrees and less is better than more?

      Are you conceding that there’s a choice between convincing people genocide is ok vs convincing democrats it’s not, and you’d prefer the former?

        Voting is the only binary choice. You can do whatever other ‘choices’ you’re babbling about at the same time if you want.

          That’s not a terrible idea actually, work it from both ends.

          Unless you care about the substance of the issue, but if not then go nuts.

            The substance of the issue for me is saving Palestinian lives which is one of the many reasons I’m voting for Biden in 2024.

                I’m chatting online with a stranger about it though- so we’re both putting in about the same amount of work on the issue ;)

                I for one am doing more than that AND voting. Turns out voting has never impeded me from participating in other forms of activism, isn’t that magical?

                  Except no activism you’ve done has been to convince anyone here that there’s a chance democrats are in trouble for supporting genocide

                  Yall seem really concerned about reassuring each other that you’ll vote for Biden, but little effort convincing anyone that Biden might lose because of this.
