  • to the same extent that i'm voting in a way that enables biden to win, which is to say i'm voting against them both.

  • OP has stated that, that being the case, they will throw away their vote, thereby enabling Trump.

    throwing your vote away doesn't enable trump any more than it enables biden.

  • We’re talking about what you’ll do on election day if your choices are Biden, Trump, or throw away.

    fortunately, i expect to have a green party candidate on my ballot, and i've been donating to cornel west so i hope i have the option to choose him. with two anti-genocidal candidates, i won't be bound by your paltry choices.

  • if you can't think of anything that might change the results, of any reason that one of two geriatrics might not be a candidate in november, than i would say you don't have a very firm grasp on reality.

  • oh. images don't embed right for viewing on mastodon.

  • well that's just not true. you have no idea what can happen between now and election day. but even if it were true, choosing not to vote for a genocide-supporting racist old politician is not the same as supporting trump. in fact, i'd say that letting biden stay in power for the last 50 years is what brought us trump.

  • voting against trump or refusing to vote is not enabling trump.

  • the only people supporting a trump victory are those voting for him. i don't believe that user is going to vote for him.

  • and by not voting for politicians who are supporting genocide, they are, themselves, not supporting genocide.

  • they have said clearly they don't. this is about as bad-faith as you can be.

  • waitwaitwait, you mean accusing our political opponents of being traitors isn't democracy? well what if we just want to criminalize their political activity and throw em in jail? or accuse them of working with foreign interests? surely, it's not fascism all the way down: the corporate media insists fascism can't be here until the next election!

  • no, it's doublethink regardless of your prognostication.
