Good for that guy. His beliefs were just and moral. He didn’t have any options though. Hitler and the Nazis were already in power.
You have an option. You’re acting like you’re brave just like this guy but I bet he wished more people voted for the candidate that wasn’t Hitler.

In our case, Biden and Trump are both Hitler because they’re both supporting a genocide.

They aren’t both Hitler though. One is unquestionably worse than the other even if you only look at that single issue. One of them WILL be the next president whether you like it or not. You can have a say in who that will be, or you can go with righteous indignation and let the worse option win by default.

It’s not righteous indignation. It’s making difficult moral decisions according to one’s conscience.
I’m aware there could be consequences if Trump wins. But I will not let fear for my own safety steer me towards supporting a genocide.
Like that guy. Who, according to reports, was punished for his failure to salute by being put into penal military service, where he was killed.
Be that guy.
