Letting fascism win is the objectively wrong decision. It's not a different perspective, you aren't thinking.
Letting genocide continue is the objectively wrong decision. So I have two objectively wrong decisions. What do?
Vote for the candidate whose election will result in the least amount of genocide. Millions of people dying under Trump is worse than the thousands of people who have died under Biden. If you cared this about the Palestinians, saving millions of lives would be a straightforward math problem.
The least amount of genocide for whom? Who's lives do I value over thr others? The ones that are most like mine?
For human beings? When Trump was in office all he did was pander to dictators. I don't see why he wouldn't do exactly the same again. Trump is going to let Netanyahu ethnically cleanse the Gaza Strip, let Putin invade Europe, let Xi invade Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific, and let Kim invade South Korea. Not to mention Trump is going to ethnically cleanse immigrants from the US. He's going to round them up into camps first. Trump is going to be bad for all of us.
Maybe wake up and realize the fascists tricked you into thinking a genocide is taking place when really only 25,000 people have died and the daily death tolls have halved in the last month and have been dropping since after the first two weeks of the war. If it's a genocide the killing apparatus should become more efficient over time, not less, and certainly not less by half, not with 99% of the alleged target people still alive.
That's the proportionate equivalent of as starting to limp and fall down when you're 450 feet into a 26.2 mile marathon.
Fascists didn't convince me of anything. I watch news from socialists. Maybe wake up and realize that you have accepted Israeli propaganda. Only 25,000 dead? ONLY? You're a psychopath.
