    I don’t believe in accepting “the lesser of two evils”

    I’ve been seeing this argument alot this electing cycle. Can you provide an example of a politician that has done committed or supported an action that could be considered “evil”?

        Do you think that Trump or the Republicans will halt military support to Isreal?

        You also have not answered my question. Are you simply not voting because all politicians are just various degrees of evil and voting for any of them will be “accepting ‘the lesser of two evils’”?

        I am genuinely interested in knowing the point of that statement. Is it to encourage people not to vote?

        Are their any other topics that you apply this mentality to or is it just this election?

        Edit: To answer your question, no, I do not support genocide. I do however believe in choosing the lesser of two evils when there are no better alternatives.

      sure, here you go, here’s the result of the Biden/harris administration’s full support of Israel’s genocide, hospital patients being burnt alive after Israeli missile strikes. there’s video in that thread, too. every day there’s new horrors like this being documented, and you still have the gall to call yourselves the “lesser evil”. do you think people are exaggerating when they call this a modern day holocaust?

      both presidential candidates support this. neither of them will stop this. they are stumbling over each other to announce they will continue to support it the most! you say the other guy will be worse, how does it get worse than burning hospital patients alive?
