Making logical points weighing up two distinct yet similar stances on genocide is only going to suppress voter turnout.

It's the same as any other US election. We always have two shit sandwich options forced by the parties. There's always some absolutely fucked position they're both going to work towards and it is just a factor of which is less bad.

There have been other genocides the US has supported for decades elsewhere that go one gave a fuck about. The issues in Gaza aren't new, they're just more visible right now because of Israeli lobbying, one of the most powerful lobbying groups in the US.

    That stopped working in 2016. Biden only won because he lied and said he wanted to do a bunch of stuff the left wanted. Harris was a return to "we're shitty, we love it, fuck you" politics.
