They should add "not yet, at least."

What a stupid half assed statement.

Yes, fuck up the country by not voting for Biden! Wait, not like this!

Also. Why does lgbt have to be so political? Take care of your own first. Maybe look after some women's rights while you're at it...

This was in January. Why is it being posted now? I mean, I guess I'm happy to know that this org made their position known on this issue of genocide, but I'm not surprised three months after the fact.

They'll enjoy the Trump administration's stance instead.

It's just a symbolic thing, it won't change votes.

I think there is at least one person who will decide not to vote for Biden because of this specific event.

What they are doing is called democracy, I know you liberals don't know much about that.

[–] drmeanfeel 1 points 8 months ago

What's the solve? The Republicans are always going to offer up a candidate with more hideous stances than whoever the Dems offer up. The Dems could run Trump himself and the GOP would manage to find someone worse, are you voting for Trump in that race because he's not Super Trump?

I'm empathetic to harm reduction and the associated stances but where does the slide to the right end if Liberal voters loyally motorboat the hooters of the "least bad evil"?

Can't vote our way out of this
