We're going around in circles. I made my point.

Fair enough, but I think we're borderline splitting hairs.
A delusion is a belief held with strong conviction despite superior evidence to the contrary.
The word can be used in mental health contexts, but it's in common usage as a synonym for "profoundly mistaken." I can see the argument for calling it ableist, but it's tenuous.
I care about 15,000 issues. Each one an innocent child murdered with American bombs.
You're out to sea if you think it would be any better under Trump. It would be the same. Palestine is fucked, but we don't have to let Dems get away with genocide with zero consequences.
The most salient fact for me is that they are both against genocide, so no, I don't know. I might flip a coin. I could even vote for De La Cruz. I guess I'm just a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma!
First two links are exclusively about rifles, not the bombs and shells being used on families in Gaza. The third article says:
When asked about the allegation, several U.S. officials said there was no change in U.S. policy or any deliberate delay in delivering previously promised aid or weapons sales to Israel.
Your last two articles say that three months ago the administration was considering thinking about exploring the possibility of debating the merits of slowing weapon deliveries.
It's not pragmatic to twiddle your thumbs while your weapons are used to commit atrocities. It's evil.
Otherwise, don't let a fantasy get in the way of the only obvious option if you like ~~democracy~~ genocide.
~~If Trump is elected~~ Palestine is leveled.
Fixed that for you
You could equally argue I'm helping Biden by not voting for Trump. So tell me Professor Logic, what does it mean if the same reasoning can be used to argue that I'm helping both Biden and Trump?
Or you can vote for someone like Jill Stein or Cornel West who isn't genocidal.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing!
