Yes their both fascists of a decaying empire but you need to vote for the lesser fascist.

The OP is one of the semi-weekly Have you considered how bad Gaza will be under Trump? posts on lemmy.world. Obviously these people dont give a shit about Palestinians or else they'd have different priorities. So there's no point actually trying to debate them because they aren't being honest. Its just wild to see how far they will bend to the left's framing and rhetoric while offering them absolutely nothing.

I bet I can get one to say "Please vote for the turd currently sponsoring a white-supremacist settler-colonial apartheid state's genocide of the indegenious population, or else the other turd will sponsor it more." if I said it would make me vote for Biden and I was in a swing state. They're so fucking desperate. My man, that shit ain't gonna work. The jpeg of a hundred mediocre things Biden's done because you couldn't point to any one good thing was working more than this.

PS: Of course they said yes to the bottom question.

    I would like to say if Biden looses then at least one party would understand that genocide is unelectable. But thats a little too optimistic about the DNC for me.

    If you actually cared about elections and Palestinians you'd be spending your time telling people to call their reps and yell at them.

    If you actually wanted Biden to win you would never even mention Palestine. Every time someone makes the lesser evil argument Biden looses votes. You're not getting any youths out phone banking or canvassing to GOTV for "please vote for the lesser fascist". But the sad truth is they have nothing left to campaign on.

      This is the true litmus test.

      If they actually cared about Palestinians more than Biden winning they'd be yelling at Biden to stop doing a genocide.

      Fuck if they cared more about winning than just supporting the status quo they'd be screaming at Biden to stop doing a genocide since people have been incredibly clear that's why they're withholding their vote.

      It's really really telling where their frustrations lie.

      They're more concerned with continuing to genocide muslims than they are with winning.

        I think the people who start these threads are totally acting in bad faith but a lot of the people who respond are blue maga doomers. They know Biden is going to lose and their venting frustrations on the people closest to them.
