They believe that taking a moral stand against the Democrats, who are supporting Israeli genocide, is worth it even if that means that Trump, who even more fervently supports Israeli genocide, becomes president.
Even calling it "Israeli genocide" is transferring responsibility. "Supporting" is an understatement. The democrats ARE THE ONES DOING THE GENOCIDE. Biden can stop it with a single phone call. Israel is not an independent state; it is a subordinate of the US.
Telling people to vote for your party, a nazi party, at the absolute peak of your depraved inhuman bloodthirst, because the other side might be worse, is the most cynical fucking thing I've ever heard.
I honestly appreciate the downvotes as a counter of angry people shamed into silence
Good. You should be fucking ashamed.
Yeah the "democrats are the REAL nazis" is tiring when you get comments from the republican hero agent Orange: https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2024/10/trump-military-generals-hitler/680327/
Shut the fuck up. I never said the republicans weren't nazis. I'm just fucking sick of you being an out and open nazi and acting like you fucking aren't.
Not voting blue is voting red in the current system. So how do I not vote for a nazi party?
Well good news! I'm not voting red, so therefore I'm voting blue! Happy now, dipshit? Now you've got the swing state of California in the bag!
Don't worry comrade I'm holding the line here in Michigan 🫡 one less vote for Trump!!
“Everyone I don’t like is a nazi”
I like everyone but nazis
Everyone on the side of genocide can be called a Nazi, yes.
I’m not voting democrat because I “support genocide”, I’m voting democrat because if Trump gets elected, shit is about to get a WHOLE lot worse. It is damage control
You can keep sitting here and acting like a fucking child throwing a temper tantrum because you don’t like the reality of our only choices, but you are being just that. A child.
You can sit on the sidelines on your little soapbox and virtue signal all you want, but when Trump wins I won’t be blaming the republicans. I’ll be blaming all of you.
You let your mask slip by calling opposing genocide "virtue signalling". You're a bad person and a bad advocate for the democrats.
Whatever you say, buddy. Do something of value instead of sitting here bitching at regular people just trying to survive (aka virtue signaling)
Genocide is a necessary but not sufficient condition for nazism.
Okay, I'm still gonna call them nazis
Their tiny liberal brains can't handle anything that isn't a binary choice.
They have fully accepted, absorbed and now spout George W Bush's slogan of "You're either with us or with the terrorists" without any irony that they are the terrorists!
