Comment on Why I Haven't Seen Any Trump Supporters In Fediverse (Lemmy and Mastodon)?

  If all you’re voting on is how they respond to Gaza, Harris isn’t great but Trump is exponentially worse. He’s openly said that Israel should continue what they’re doing. In fact, in every metric of comparison Trump is exponentially worse. It’s not that we’re scared of Trump, it’s that he is so much worse in every regard.

    Yeah no shit but im not gonna settle for genocide. Slower genocide is still genocide and if I can do anything to prevent the murder of hundreds of thousands of people I will do so. I genuinely believe that witholding my vote and protesting has a chance of altering Harris’ position here.

      We cant stop a genocide in the future if were too busy fighting one in our backyard. Our system is fucked, we are forced to play the game, so we have pick our battles.

      What good does altering Harris’s position do if she doesn’t win?

        If she wins without ceasing material support for actual genocide then we have failed as a people

        Whichever candidate is willing to end the genocide not that I’d believe trump if he said he would. I’ll vote third party if necessary

      The Americans are lost. Their version of democracy has collapsed over their own heads. In a way, they deserve this shit. If they put all this crappy energy into unitedly voting for third candidate, it just might work. But nope, gotta wake up every day and go online to accuse people who refuse a second holocaust of being tRuMp SupPorTers.

      Free thought is dead in America and the Americans killed it.

      Go ahead downvote me to fucking hell, haters.

    Yes, of course. I would never encourage people to vote for a fascist

    • Angry_Autist@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Yet you are encouraging others to NOT vote for the non-fascist?

        Harris is materially supporting a genocide and uncritically parroting the rhetoric of israeli fascist. I am telling people not to vote for her because she too is a fascist.

    Thats fair but it’s probably just a generational or regional divide. For instance, I personally can’t take people who use that form of text capitalization seriously. No shame though I just associate it with 7th grade

      You’re not gonna believe this, but I’m pretty sure that was the intent, to mock you

  Somehow people think that pointing out people are pro-genocide means that Trump somehow isn’t pro-genocide.

  Like you’re not allowed to think about two problems at once. Or that there are no other options…

  • sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    I get that but I’m not gonna criticize trump for being pro-genocide bc we can’t do shit fuck about that. Atleast with Harris there is a slim chance of changing her position on the matter by witholding votes and being vocal about it.

    source

    • Bertuccio@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Yes. Exactly! The reason people keep bitching about Harris and genocide is because they hope something might actually happen about it.

      Biden was an absolutely terrible candidate (that I was going to vote for) and probably the only person who could lose against Trump. Because people constantly bitched about how bad he was they changed the candidate.

      Harris doesn’t get to use Trump as a not-as-bad-as screen, and given that we don’t have the option of not voting for her, everyone should be applying every other available form of pressure to discourage her from enabling genocide or otherwise maintaining the status quo.

        Now is not the time. After she is elected, get out there and put the pressure on her. But it makes no sense to risk the fate of the entire country on this.

  You’re willing to let millions die for how many more generations in Gaza with Hamas in charge, and tens of millions if Iran shoots its shot at Israel. Grow up.
