I don’t want you to misinterpret me. I do agree with you. Certainly, the U.S.’ impact is unacceptable regardless of who is in power.

Certainly, the best thing a US President could ever do is ensure that the U.S. will not live to see another day.

The truth is though, I might be a citizen and all, but no matter what I do, I don’t get a say in voting for someone other than the warmongers. I don’t get to vote for the communists, and even if I did, anyone who would propose a serious threat would be eliminated in some fashion.

Anyways, it’s getting late, but there are people for whom the tiny marginal difference between ordinary liberal and hyper-reactionary liberal is a big deal. To say the tiny marginal difference affects “no one” isn’t correct, although it may very well be close to a rounding error in the grand scheme of things.

Does it make any difference to the millions of people bombed abroad whether the bombers supported trans rights? Of course not, and we both know that.

Okay I get it but be wary of falling into the trap of actually supporting them and knee jerking when someone criticise them etc.
