God, you liberals are disgusting scum. MLK was right about you, you are the greatest threat to justice.

I’m think you’re missing the point.

You face three choices:

  1. Most death and harm, 50% chance of happening
  2. Less death and harm, 50% chance of happening
  3. Principled choice for no death and harm, but that practically makes choice 1 more likely to happen because it has 0 chance of happening.

Choosing choice 3 is equivalent to choosing choice 1 because you’re contributing to choice 1 happening practically.

Choosing choice 3 is directly creating more death and harm than choosing choice 2 and in that way is morally worse.

Rather than being sanctimonious why not give some actionable advice.

Ok, how about this. The way you’ve been doing things? Don’t do that.

Typical, always there to tell people how it should be, completely detached from consequences

Yes, that’s typically how democrats are, but this time I think you’re gonna experience them with us. You’ll finally get a taste of that solidarity you’re always going on about from the comfort of your couch. See you on the protest line, comrade.
