    There’s also the fact that in both examples, Trump represents by far the worse on both issues. It’s like saying “Abraham Lincoln is a racist, so anyone voting for him over the slaver candidates has decided racism isn’t a deal-breaker!” It’s like, fuck. popular sentiment and the structure of our decision-making apparati means we only have so many fucking choices available to us at a given time. Sorry for not sitting it out so we can jerk off to the intensification of already-shitty situations? We’re trying to make the best decision with what we have, not torment the oppressed so we can pretend to have a halo over our head.

      Exactly. Harris and Trump both have pro-Israel policies which I’m strongly against. Trump’s stance is far worse, AND he’s a racist, misogynist, corpo sellout piece of shit.
