What other option that actually has a chance of winning is there? Last I saw, it was either going to be Biden or Trump on the ballot come November. So do you support indirect genocide that can be curbed, or do you support full throated fascistic genocide?

And remember, inaction is a choice, and that choice inevitably favors the republican candidate. So again, which do you choose? Can you justify not playing electoral politics when we end up with that fucking fascist asshole back in the whitehouse? Cuz I’m sure Israel is gonna turn it up to 11 once they know they’ve got full cover from Donald (“Stop releasing footage of you murdering people, this is really bad optics”)[apnews.com/…/trump-biden-israel-pr-hugh-hewitt-21…] Trump.

When the options are fascism and genocide or fascism and genocide there is no "winning".

You abstain and don't contribute to the ethos of either agenda.

  FTFY. One party doesn’t want you to vote because you’re likely more against them than the other option.
  
  Voter suppression is the right’s bread and butter, don’t be naive and think you’re not doing exactly what they want by staying home.

    They can want it all they want. I don't give a fuck. It's shameful that the DEMOCRAT PARTY is giving them what they want, that's not on me.
    
    I care about what I want.
    
    I want my President, the President representing the party I used to affiliate with, to not be a genocidal maniac who expands spying on his citizens. Who doesn't restrict their free speech under the guise of national security when it is clear that it is all about money. Who does ANYTHING to combat homelessness, outrageously priced increasingly unattainable healthcare, skyrocketing inflation, the death of direct home ownership instead of just going "Everything is fine. Bidenomics. Catchy, huh?"
    
    I could keep going on.
    
    Biden is a shitbag human being unfit for the office.
    
    Again, it is not on me that the Democrat party disenfranchised me and became a fascist carbon copy of early 2000s Republicans that I can not in good conscience cast a vote for. That is on the Democrat party.
    
    I refuse to reward the Democrat parties absolutely abhorrent behavior over the past 2 years with a vote.

What makes you think a vote for Biden is voting for genocide that “can be curbed”?

Every statement and action from the Biden admin, even the meme we are commenting on, shows that Biden is unwilling to curb the genocide.
