    Just acknowledge that we were always getting one of two options. This isn’t confusing in the slightest.

    To extend the analogy used in the comment starting this thread, it’s like leaving your abusive partner to live with a more abusive partner.

    Why the ever loving fuck would you choose the worse option?

      The choices were genocide or genocide. Apparently some privileged people here haven’t noticed that the genocide has already been getting worse and worse for over a year now.

        Maybe electing someone unlikely to restrain them at all while simultaneously making shit worse in the US and Ukraine, doing a 180 on what little climate progress we’ve made, making abortion illegal nationwide, and reducing/ending social security will help.

          Biden wasn’t restraining israel at all and Harris kept talking about how she’d be a continuation of Biden. Now you’re bringing in a bunch of other issues that aren’t what these voters are focused on. Turns out you have to appeal to voters to get their votes.
