    Libs try to frame it as like, since both candidates will genocide Gaza then that means we have to focus on the other harms, but any reasonable person should see it as such a hideous amount of harm being done that harm reduction in this framework is like reducing a desert by removing grains of sand from it.

      The reason libs treat genocide in Palestine as just another uncomfortable foreign policy issue is because that's exactly what it is for them. They don't see Palestinians as people, they don't view a life as inherently valuable, and so it's a PR problem for their team, nothing more. That's why the arguments are always treated in PR terms.
