The notion that Biden represents a lesser evil compared to the chaotic reign of Trump is a common argument. However, we must not forget that there exists a moral threshold below which neither choice is acceptable. To suggest that enabling a literal genocide can be considered a lesser evil is a morally bankrupt stance.

Saying that voting for Biden is a moral obligation to prevent the return of Trump perpetuates a dangerous fallacy. It implies that the democratic party is immune from scrutiny and accountability, no matter the atrocities they commit. This line of thinking allows for a never-ending cycle of justification, as long as there's somebody considered worse, the democrats are granted a blank check. This is nothing more than a form of gaslighting, manipulating the public into believing that their only choice is between two evils, rather than demanding a better standard of leadership and true representation.

    Liberals will vote for fascism if you place a fascist next to an embarrassing fascist.

    Liberals will not actively fight fascism, they will assimilate to it. Those that do not will cease to be liberals and find their way to leftist ideologies.

      the best way for Hitler to have prevented internal dissent was for him to allow a Definitely Not Nazi Party to run against him with Goebbels at its head. almost exactly the same concept going on in present-day America.

      even the mere idea of challenging the system that is upholding a genocidal fascist is completely wiped away in the minds of liberals as they flitter like moths to a flame towards the theater of an election which many of them even admit will be between 99% Hitler and 100% Hitler. give liberals a bunch of buttons that are disconnected from anything and they'll still mash them over and over in their panic rather than walking away from the control panel
