    There’s so much wrong with what you just said, that I don’t even have time to point out all the problems because I have to watch the next episode of Muderbot. But I will spare the time to point out there have been many times in the past several decades when democrats had the option to spurn their sponsors in the military industrial complex and not warmonger, but not a single one of those times did they choose the humane option and just not.

    Anyone who thinks that politicians that are bought and paid for by the corporate war machine are just going to stop murdering kids is either incredibly naive, or an idiot. I’ll let you decide which of the two you are.

      I agree. So why is the argument from your side of the table just apathy? Doing nothing isn’t going to solve anything, and the only options available ATM are nothing but limiting how much damage is done or accelerating/increasing the damage. Do you have any actionable solutions to get a secret third option, besides “hurr durr, I am not voting because both choices are bad?” Because not understanding the concept of a “lesser evil” when no other choice is available is far more naive.

        Oh, so six million people can turn out to protest a dictator, but liberals can’t be bothered to do the same when it’s to stop a genocide? What the actual fuck, dude? So the only fucking time you’ll get off your lazy liberal ass to do anything is when it impacts you specifically? What a horrible person you are.

        But hey, at least you can pat yourself on the back for voting for the lesser evil. What a shit take. I think that’s enough from you. Thank you, do not come again.
