Do you think people think about their culpability?

I mean, the argument "I don't want to vote for Biden since he's supporting a genocide, despite the fact my apathy may cause another person to get elected instead that supports more genocide" kinda sounds like that, yeah.

I am on the other side of the pond, so I have no vote there, but I don't know what I'd be doing. I voted in elections where the best idea I had was a protest vote. I voted for joke parties as well. I never voted for someone who openly supported genocide though. Feels like a deal with the devil at least, like allying yourself with Stalin to fight Hitler.

American here. It sucks. We often have a lesser of evil vote. I don't see an alternative. I'd vote for someone that ran on a platform of unfucking our elections / political parties. I have ill will toward both parties. It used to be very near equal, 15 or so years ago but through the tea party movement, into Trumpism, watching them ratfuck Obama out of 2 Supreme Court picks, then Jan6, smfh. I've lost all respect for Republicans. Dems have me in that respect because i have no other choice. That needs to change. That said...

I will go vote for Biden (and feel fine with it) because he's trying. He's pushing policy forward, even trying to reach across the aisle on important things. The other side of the aisle are clowns though and are doing some kind of performance art for their base rather than keeping the country running. Biden deserves my vote here. I don't see evidence of anything other than him trying to unfuck the nation and return stability. More of that please.

Also, he's not Trump. Fuck that traitor.
