Because its more realistic that the GOP is a wolf and telling the sheep straight up it will eat them. Then the dems would be a bear saying it will become vegetarian if elected. Sure, a bear will eat a sheep if given the chance, but is more likely to sustain its self on scavenging.
Something something if I had to pick a Republican or a bear, I’d pick the bear.
If genocide is a red line for voting than every citizen who has voted within our life time would have crossed it. Our whole political system upholds genocide from local to presidential. A red line and acceptable are not actual synonyms like you are inferring. I do things I don’t find acceptable all the time because they are better than the other option and its less acceptable to allow the alternative to happen. I can have gencodie and fascism in america or just genocide. Neither is acceptable. One will happen whether I make a decision or not.
There is no red line. Things change. Society and humanity isn’t static . what was acceptable in the past isn’t anymore and what is acceptable now was not in the past. I am not an absolutist.
You do what you think will functionally lead to the best possible outcome now.
In this shit universe you have to be pragmatic sometimes and pick the less fascist person to prevent even worse fascism. Nobody like it, but here we are.
I’m far left. Anti capitalist. Anti authoritarian. But, there are groups on the left or masking of leftists very heavily pushing people not to vote for joe biden in the upcoming elections. They, whether real leftists or not, are not just protesting. I don’t love joe biden. I didn’t even vote for him the first time. I knew he would win my state and voted 3rd party. But mass rhetoric to protest vote for no one or someone else risks leaving us with donald trump.
Our whole system supports genocide. America supports genocide. We need to go deeper than biden to address this issue.e
Trump won. Sadly this means he was the better candidate. Which damning for the Democrats because he’s dog shit.
