    biden is actively enabling a genocide right now and has done something similar for several others in the last few decades as a senator; meanwhile trump has only fantasized about helping a genocide.

    it would be an easier choice it he would just stop helping genociders.

      Again, Trump will be no different on that front. That is simply a non-issue when it comes to which of them to vote for. And, also again, it’s either going to be Trump or Biden.

        also again: biden has enabled more genocides than than trump ever has.

          You’re still justifying voting for a dictator over a non-dictator. It should be a simple choice. Either you’re for American fascism or against it. It doesn’t matter what Biden has done. It matters whether or not you want a dictator.

            american facism is already here; biden and trump are merely two different flavors of it.

              What a ridiculous thing to say. Biden doesn’t have a plan to put all the migrants into concentration camps or to suppress queer people or anything else in Project 2025’s list of goals, which Trump will implement.

              So either you are not aware of Project 2025 and how it will lead to another genocide, possibly more than one, or you only care about one genocide.

                he doesn’t need a plan; he’s currently doubling down on trump’s plan.

                or to suppress queer people or anything else in Project 2025’s list of goals, which Trump will implement.

                biden has advocated for this his entire career and has only made token gestures otherwise to get votes; hyperbolic arguments are moot when you’ve already survived them.

                So either you are not aware of Project 2025 and how it will lead to another genocide, possibly more than one, or you only care about one genocide.

                they don’t have enough time to catch up to biden’s level of enabling genocides before the next election. also most of the other genocides have already been committed so it makes sense to care about the active ones.

                  Sorry… most of the genocides have already been committed? Migrants have been rounded up and forcibly deported en masse? Trans people have been forced to go underground? Queer people have been erased from history?

                  That’s what you don’t mind happening apparently.

                    that biden enabled: yes

                    Migrants have been rounded up and forcibly deported en masse?

                    biden is doing this right now

                    Trans people have been forced to go underground? Queer people have been erased from history?

                    biden has advocated doing this for decades and his token gestures have only served to give bigots legal protection for their bigotry.

                    That’s what you don’t mind happening apparently.

                    that’s why i don’t want to see more by voting for a person with a decades long track record of doing so.

          Trump.enabled Russia’s action in Ukraine, which some would say aims to be genocide as well, and on a larger scale.

          So it’s a choice between genocide, or two genocides and fascism in the US. I know it’s a shit choice, between bad and worse, but one of those two people is going to be elected. Personally I am going to vote against worse.
