right now there is genocidal regime in power u can either support them or not do that, that is all, i know to u amerikkkans genocide is nothing having committed so many thru out ur history and feeling proud of them and all that but for normal people there is no space for compromise here.
Yawwwwn
Politics IS compromise.
Genocide is wrong no matter who's doing it. That's not even the argument here. Sadly, half a dozen presidents ago Congress decided the US needs Israel for some reason (very likely because it's mentioned in their dumb little book as key for the second coming of their dumb little god) so now there's a binding agreement and nobody can say anything bad about Israel. Violating that causes a whole storm of international drama that would (shock!) cause more destruction than the current horrifying, illegal, and whitewashed genocide.
I'm dumbing this down for you. You're welcome.
Where we are now the government's hands are tied unless it gets overhauled. Since there are only two viable political parties, the lesser of two evils is the choice - and you're right, they're both evil, but there's the "supports genocide" evil and the "supports genocide AND fascism AND suppression of women & minorities AND oligarchy AND Russia etc" evil. Dems in power = slim possibility of overhaul. GOP in power = no possibility of the public having any sway ever again.
Your smug all or nothing rhetoric is short sighted, excessively privileged, and frankly dangerous. I'm ignoring you now. Feel free to post your gotcha and declare yourself victorious.
Like i said u amerikkkans are very comfy with genocide not a big deal for u i get it u are evil but for actual fucking humans with empathy and emotions and shit there is no compromise with genocide. I reiterate u are trying to excuse voting for a genocidal regime because u might get a few crumbs of positive legislature YOU ARE PATHETIC, and u are evil. We are done here.
