    I’m on your side, man. I’m on here bitching on “BOTH SIDES” types all day long. I’m voting for Biden (or, on the off-chance he’s replaced, whoever the fuck is put up as a viable alternative to Trump). Voting to intensify genocide, as with a vote for Trump or a failure to oppose Trump with one’s vote, is never acceptable.

    It’s just that we also must accept, as citizens, that we bear a part of the responsibility of this mess, and at no point can we look back at this and say “Well, as the American people, our choice to tepidly support genocide wasn’t THAT bad, or geopolitical concerns justified it”

    Our choice is dogshit. Even if it was 100% reversed now, it would remain dogshit, albeit much less dogshit than continuing or intensifying it. And we have to square with that on our souls.
