What liberals like OP will never understand is that no matter how real the threat of violence towards me is, it will never be enough to convince me to endorse genocide. At least I can go to my grave with a clean conscience, and that’s not worth much but it’s worth a hell of a lot more than anything Biden would do for me.
Cool, you can go to the grave knowing you’ve assisted in the murder as many people as possible. Good job!
Standing by and doing nothing when you could do something is assisting the end result. So if Trump wins, you can pop some champagne and celebrate how many additional Palestinians you’ve helped murder so you could indulge in a masturbatory excuse for civic participation.
Sorry, I’m having trouble understanding you with that boot so far down your throat.
I think what you just said is something along the lines of, our ruler, who is actively arming and supporting a genocide that he has the power to stop, is completely blameless, while I, having no power and doing nothing with it, am somehow responsible for the genocide. That the gist of it?

No, but maybe if you take a remedial English class, you can come back in a few years and actually parse what was said.
I’m simply obeying what my conscience dictates and I’ve already accepted all that could entail. No matter what happens, I won’t feel guilty about my decision to not support genocide. I hope someday you too can recognize that supporting genocide is wrong, but I’m not holding my breath.
It’s a shame you won’t feel guilty about your decision to enable multiple genocides. But I guess some people just don’t have the moral integrity to look beyond their own nose.
Why does the blame for the results of a democratic farce that allows authoritarianism to rise falls on those not participating in said farce?
If anything, is those participating in it, advocating for it and validating it that should be blamed when the system they enabled inevitably puts in power an authoritarian idiot like trump. (not my way of thinking, but if we are gonna point fingers…)
Who would you blame if Biden wins the popular vote and your “very democratic” electoral college gives the win to trump? Like it happened to Clinton.

Why do I think people who don’t even bother to do the bare minimum to keep a fascist from gaining the highest office in the land share blame in letting a fascist gain the highest office in the land?
I wonder.

Offering non-cooperation without alternatives isn’t anything except enabling fascism through passivity. You want to delegitimize the system? Go ahead. But you better have a fucking plan that gets real fucking rolling before inauguration day, or else I will regard it as the work of a dumb fuck fascist enabler.
Otherwise? Vote with the rest of us who aren’t fascists or their useful idiots and avert fascism a little longer so we have the ability to make such plans, should we desire.

Whatever dumb fuck swing state was closest. And every Republican voter, of course.

Demanding a more democratic system that will actually give power to the voice of the people and make it harder for fascism/authoritarianism to rise seems like a better option to me than pretending the current system that allows people like trump into power, with ease and against the democratic consensus, will someday fix itself.
Im not sure about this but I think most dictators and authoritarians around the world were “democratically” elected.
Also, a little bit hypocritical/naive, tbh, considering the US has its far share of fascism already. Theres no arguing that trump/republicans are the worst option with almost immediate consequences for the US but if the objective is to “fight against fascism”, perpetuating the democrats in power as is wont do you any favours either. In terms of fascism/authoritarianism Trump is cyanide and Biden is mercury. Both will kill you but one will take much longer.

Thats very unrealistic, theres no “solution” that will guarantee Trump wont get into power. Not even voting.
However, if a change wanted to be made, protest and denunciation of the problem would be a good start; Election boycott and abstentionism are part of it. Its a shame that it is now that people is voicing their discontent now instead of when trump was undemocratically elected but thats how this things go.
I still dont believe that you can honestly blame the people not participating (nor those who do) for the results of an undemocratic and rigged system. But you do you.
And why is it that “we” have to come up with a magical solution that wil erradicate fascism in a few months when what you are advocating for not only cant prevent authoritarianism from getting into power but it enables it, encourages it and rewards it.
… or else I will regard it as the work of a dumb fuck fascist enabler.
“Insults are the arguments of those who are wrong”
You can vote for whoever you prefer, just know that you’re responsible for the outcome. And if you can bear being responsible, in part, for a fascist dictatorship and the murder of countless minorities, well, that’s… that’s a choice. I mean, it’s the kind of choice that marks someone as a fascist piece of shit, but it’s a choice.
Hm, it’s almost like we already live in a fascist dictatorship with the largest prison population in the world (proportionally), that is sending weapons to support a genocide, that is working to supress free speech. Hmmm. Wow if I had more than two brain cells I’d be able to figure out that voting for Biden is voting for fascism but gee I’ve only got the two.
Cool, you can go to the grave knowing you’ve assisted in the murder as many people as possible. Good job!
If not doing anything for someone counts as assistance, then rest assured that Biden will have my assistance.

So then you agree that the fault lies with Biden and not me, cool cool.
Oh no, there’s fault with Biden, but you’ll have blood aplenty on your hands if Trump wins.

What a great democracy we have! You can only vote for Biden!
“I can’t believe that most people don’t want my first OR second choice, even as a compromise position! This isn’t REAL democracy!”
So you’re okay with people just voting for whoever they prefer? No big deal if I vote for my first choice then?
