    Which functionally helps Republicans get elected. You solution is to put Republicans in power hoping they destroy enough that we have to start from scratch.

    What we should be doing is primarying the fuck out of every conservative Democrat in the caucus and pushing the party left while maintaining a firewall against the GOP. Not sacrificing minorities, women, immigrants, and poor people to GOP rule to prove a point.

      Doesn’t matter they both commit genocide.

      If you can vote for two Nazis or someone else that isn’t a Nazi you don’t vote for the Nazi you like most because then he will win. You vote for the person that isn’t a Nazi.

        And if you do this knowing your choice to vote for the person who never had a chance to win but isn’t a Nazi results in the worse of the two Nazis getting elected, I think you’ve made a poor moral judgement AND a poor strategic one. You’re helping the people who most want to harm you and allowing a significant amount of pain and suffering to happen to innocent people.

        You can call joe biden a genocidal monster all you want but at the end of the day, Trump is going to hurt a lot of people that Joe Biden won’t. He’s going to cause more damage to the country than Joe Biden ever could and it won’t be in ways that promote the positive change we both want. This is the literal definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

          And more excuses to advocate for genocide. Even the Nazi’s weren’t this much in denial. A vote for Biden or Trump directly condones and support genocide. It is a direct action that shows that you voluntarily condone and support it. If you do not vote, or vote third party, you are not complicit in genocide. But if you vote for Biden or Trump then you do.
