    Then it’s complacency. Your protest is not saying you don’t want genocide. Your protest is saying you’re fine with whatever level of genocide we get. Driving transgender Americans to suicide, if not outright hunting them for sport, would just be an added bonus.

      objection

      As a trans person, don’t hide behind me to defend your support of genocide!

      Under no conceivable circumstance does anyone have a moral responsibility to support genocide. Even if a killer had me at gunpoint, I would sooner die than become an accomplice to mass murder!

      phoenix-objection-1phoenix-objection-2 I reject your framing of the issue! There comes a point where “lesser evilism” no longer applies. If the election were between Mussolini and Hitler, would you tell me that I have a moral responsibility to vote Mussolini? Would you tell me that refusing to legitimize such an election is “complacency?” This is the logical conclusion of your reasoning!
