An argument that RadLibs have been making lately is that there's no universe in which a pro-Palestinian candidate gets in reach of the presidency, so you're obligated to support the least-bad option. So true!

Now let's do a little extrapolation.

Anyone who's glanced at even a single page of climate science knows that there is no universe in which the American people and a stable, sustainable global ecosystem coexist. Given this unfortunate but unavoidable reality, it is everyone's duty to support the Harm Reduction of exterminating 330 million Americans.

Since the odds of humanity going extinct in the next century are approaching 100%, there is no scenario in which zero people die to climate catastrophe.

Given that people are obligated to vote for the candidate who would ensure that 99.9% of Gazans are killed instead of 100%, it is equally true that you must throw all your weight behind the scenario that ensures only 330 million deaths instead of of 8 billion.

If you oppose this Politically Unavoidable Genocide, you are simply a privileged purity Leftist who doesn't care about Harm Reduction!

i don't think radlibs words are worth anything at all, their only consistent position is unquestionable loyalty to the US empire (even for those that aren't Usians apparently). For example here you have all of them suddenly supporting draft when their favourite pet nazi regime do it, even though being antidraft is supposed to be one of their core ideas. There's even one of them there really going straight to the point with opposing draft in USA and supporting it on Ukraine.

I wouldn't be so glad, those aren't our enemies, those are their lowest pawns. In case of them, stupidity is way more dangerous because they are so easy to pawn around by whomever hold their information intakes.
