CNN's Dana Bash barely suppressed a stunned laugh as she pressed Ramaswamy to explain his claim that the Trump-incited Jan. 6 riot was actually "an inside job."
You aren’t voting for anyone. No one is. This is a first past the post voting system. You don’t vote FOR people, you vote AGAINST people. And by not voting, you’re saying you won’t vote against either party.
Cool I will just vote for trump since it is all the same then.
I don’t give a shit what you want to tell yourself to make you feel better about actively supporting genocide.
Here is a radical fucking idea, run a fucking candidate who doesn’t support genocide.
It won’t matter soon, all the people that matter are dying or dead already, after that people will just forget about it and them anyway, and then you guys will have your way about it.
You are supporting the guaranteed death now, vs what might happen later, and the actual people now will pay the price for your hypothetical actions in the future.
If you prefer the option of “genocide with a reduction of rights from my neighbors” more than “genocide alone”, then that’s you’re right as a citizen to choose it.
And as much as you like to pretend that not voting somehow absolves you, it doesn’t. To truly not be liable you need to stop paying taxes. Otherwise your participation in our economy props up genocide.

Yep. I voted against trump last time, I got a president who supports genocide.
If genocide and genocide are the only two options then what does it matter who I vote for?
If the only thing you care about is genocide, then it doesn’t matter.
It also means you don’t care about improving the lives of your neighbors or mitigating other kinds of damage.
If that’s how you really feel, then you do you. But being a single issue voter leads to very weird outcomes.
Devil I know vs the one I don’t.
Run someone who doesn’t support killing innocent by people.
Why is that so hard?
Should be easy. Should be simple. Clearly isn’t. And you can’t change that. So what will you do?
In first past the post, failing to vote is the same as a vote for the person you like least.
You may not like the game, but even by not playing you’re playing.
See you people like to say that, but I’m not opposing you. I’m just not supporting you.
I could vote for trump, I can not vote, or I can vote for Biden.
I could cancel out one of your votes, I could add to your vote or I can do neither.
Do you see the difference now?
Yes, I fully understand. You think that no voting is a null action. That’s a comforting but too simple viewpoint.
I recommend you watch the CPG grey video on first past the post voting. It’s fun. It’s quick. It explains my point better than text can.
