Was supporting genocide "damage control?"
Supporting the lesser evil is damage control. Yes, Harris is far from great, but Trump is far worse.
Here's the question I asked.
That's the question I answered.
Which would you rather support?
Pick one or give an alternative and a good reason that it will have some effect.
The lesser evil in this situation is genocide without all the other shit, and supporting that is therefore damage control
Sorry, I thought I made it clear. What Biden did when he supported genocide for you is not "damage control" even though you love him for it.
A. Please tell me exactly where I said Biden was anything more than a mildly less shit alternative to Trump. And please tell me where I was saying support the genocide, rather than support one of the people who supports the genocide.
B. I have not been talking about what Biden should have done. I have only been talking about what voters should have done.
Welp, you just saw that "damage control" has a limit. People will stay home if they see insufficient difference between the two pro-genocide parties.
