Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) shares his message to voters in the Uncommitted Movement who are considering not voting in the presidential race over the Biden administration's handling of Israel.
Okay, cool. Go ahead and state the case, then, if it’s such an obvious fact. Go ahead and say “I will be voting for a genocidal candidate this election, because that is what my country’s political system forced me to do.”
I will be truly impressed if you actually do it.
Most people find some excuse not to. That’s the problem we have.
It’s the bold text that we accept that a vote for Dems is a vote for genocide. But given no other plausible alternative, and the enormous risk to a plethora of other issues that Trump represents, voting for less genocide is the best option on the table.
I literally bolded it for you this time.
Or if you want me to put in in terms of self:
I support a candidate that supports genocide because they support less genocide than the only other plausible option. Both in Gaza and in Ukraine. And less blatant corruption. And less erosion of rights. And less lynching of minorities. And less open encouragement of domestic terrorism.
There, you got your soundbite. Take the bolded portion and pass it around to your comrads out of context for all I care.
Keep on attacking that imaginary strawman. Lemmy .world connected communities as a whole accept the very obvious reality of what the stakes are. In every political thread, this is spelled out over and over because of you “leftists” trying to disenfranchise Dem voters exclusively.
There are plenty of memes caricaturizing you clowns.

Good for you, I am impressed! Now help us convince all the other democrat voters to do the same and we might actually be able to fix this.
