    Oh make no mistake, I’m voting for Joe no matter what. The only alternative is Donald Trump, and Donald Trump wants to destroy the Republic. Joe could send American troops into Rafah to glass it today, and I’d hold my nose and go vote for him in November. That’s just facing reality.

    Would I prefer things were different? Of course, but however much legitimate criticism might be laid at Biden’s feet for not doing more to stop the genocide in Gaza, Trump has already wholly endorsed completely annihilating the Palestinian people, and he wants genocide in the US besides.

    It’s not a difficult choice.

          I don’t know what that says, but you legitimately said you are okay with glassing Gaza, which makes you okay with fascism and genocide.

            You’re just as disingenuous with your argument as you are with your position. Anybody who wants to know what I legitimately said can read it.

            Entertaining a terrible hypothetical to make a point is not the same as being okay with it–and I think you know that already. For example, I still engaged with you lot because I think there might be some benefit for someone reading this exchange to realize that these issues are complicated and nuanced, and they deserve critical thinking. That doesn’t mean I’m okay with you. Fortunately, unlike with global politics, the consequences of ending this engagement are nonexistent.

      I doubt you’d be holding your nose in such a case.
