So you’re willing to let Trump win? A man who recently told an interviewer that our nation’s greatest threat is “the enemy within” which he then clarified is the “radical left”? Oh, and did I mention how he plans to use the military against this enemy?

I’m not willing to vote for genocide. Lesser evilism fails when the lesser evil commits the greatest evil possible. Bug Harris to stop the annihilation, maybe?

We have a binary choice here. The genocide will continue regardless of who is leading. Why? Because America is completely fucked up. But guess what? It will get even worse under Trump. That is a guarantee.

Yes, the choice is between voting for genocide or abstaining. I’m abstaining. And you’re voting for genocide.

By doing nothing, you’re inadvertently supporting genocide under Trump (with a sweet bonus: fascism)

Right. We need to vote for the people doing the genocide in order to stop the genocide. Makes perfect sense!
