    “The other guy is worse than me” is not such a winning strategy, but I guess it works for the #VoteBlueNoMatterGenocide crowd.

    We have to support the genocide OVER THERE so we don’t have genocide OVER HERE!

      That argument only works if the republicans aren’t also pro-genocide.

      Would a republican win be any better for the people of Palestine than a democrat? If so, how?

      When voting red will turn Ukraine into Palestine and make the situation in Palestine twice as bad, yes, it does work.

      Well, that’s the dilemma of a 2-party voting system.

      If it makes you happy, look at Europe and their election yesterday. So many parties to choose from, a handful of them not bad, a lot of them passable, but the idiots voted for the bottom of the barrel (at least in Germany). So, idk if that is better.
