Just putting this up to contrast with this post and because Eli Valley is a great political cartoonist.

        Well, I don’t support either one of them but it’s very clear that Trump is the worse of the two options in the two party system. I did not choose him. I really think it’s moronic for randos on the internet to try to tell me what I support. It’s not a moral issue for me, it’s a logical one.

            Again, voting for Biden is not supporting him. I’ll acknowledge that he is one of two shitty options, but my brain works well enough to recognize that in a two party system, we’re not going to have more than two options. That’s just math.

            My memory works well enough to remember the Trump regime and its lasting impacts on our country. Not voting for Biden is an endorsement for further rollbacks to bodily autonomy, a greater division in wealth, the privatization of public services, religious indoctrination in schools, AND the continued genocide of Palestinians.

                The third option being doing nothing at all? Is that the third option or are you going to inform me of a new way to do electoral math?

                I am voting for Biden as a vote against Trump. I do not support Biden; I abhor Trump. I am not really sure why this is difficult to process for you.

                You keep mentioning morals after I already told you that my decision is not one based in morals; it’s based in logic. Keep schilling for the right and you too will no longer need to worry about voting at all.

                    In my state, we’re not even having a primary. Again, tell me more about how to do the electoral math.

                    And I repeat the question you side-stepped; logically, how would one discourage Democrats ftom supporting genocide? Remember now, I’m not talking about Republicans, I know that they’re difficult to distinguish these days but I’m asking about Democrats. How, logically, does one stop Democrats from funding genocide and accepting AIPAC money?

                    Show up to the meetings in your county. Get the phone numbers of the local party leaders that you can actually speak with. Engage with them. Tell them what they need to support. I’m tired of being the youngest person in the room as a 40 year old, it doesn’t bode well. All politics is local.
