    Voting isn't a moral act and it's navel gazing to think of it this way.

    Vote however or don't but goddamn, don't buy this rationale.

      voting for someone that is a warcriminal, a rapist, a racist, etc etc... that is an immoral act. you are choosing to support the ascension to power of morally bankrupt ghouls. whether there is a vote which would be moral or not is irrelevant

        It's a zero sum game where one of the two is gonna win so you might as well acknowledge that reality and act accordingly, however that shakes out for you.

        If you're an American citizen, the blood is already on your hands whether you vote or not. You don't get to absolve yourself of living here by simply not checking a box.

              you are literally saying that everyone has to support one of the chosen war criminals because they live in a country thats done war crimes.

                Read it again because I explicitly didn't say that. "However that shakes out for you" is deliberately vague. I'm pretty clearly not trying to convince anyone to vote any way, I'm just annoyed by this reasoning that people use. Because it's nonsense.

                Vote however, or don't. But don't pretend that's an act of absolution.

                  no one said it was absolution. what was said is that voting for a war criminal is immoral to which you replied that people "might as well" because they already "have blood on their hands"

                    I never said to "[vote] for a war criminal" and I'm done arguing about something I didn't say.

                        Ctrl+F "war criminal" no results found

                        Ctrl+F "Biden" no results found

                        You're just reading what you want into that because you want to be angry. Look inward.
