I like that you're clowning this nerd, but I gotta ask - why give your vote to the guy that stamps his approval on billions sent to help zionists commit genocide?
Someone close to me works for the federal government. He is administrative staff supporting government ecologists, and they’re fearing a Trump presidency. Project 2025 will destroy our national parks and ruin years of ecological research, at minimum.
Both candidates will send money in support of genocide. One candidate will dismantle our federal systems (the good ones people forget about) and kill trans kids.
I can’t in good conscience pretend both old men are equally harmful.
So why would you give your tacit support via voting to one of them? Just for the parks and federal systems, eschewing all the genocide and that Biden has happily let all kinds of transphobic bills slide through under his watch? That announcement about NO SURGERY FOR TRANS MINORS?
I get your point of view but I’m not going to argue with you further. I have lost rights to my own bodily autonomy (I am equipped with a uterus) due to trumps judicial picks. I saw the damage done due to his COVID policies. I live in a red state. You can’t convince me that using my vote for Biden isn’t harm reduction.
When y’all decide to do something more with your time other than argue on the internet with people who mostly agree with you, let me know. I will vote in the most pragmatic way I can until there is a better option.
Biden did not lift so much as a finger to protect your bodily autonomy despite the ability to and knowledge ahead of time that it would be repealed. He's not been helping either of us and he won't start if he wins again. No dem will. Biden was also in office when a large amount of covid policies were rolled back. Biden's admin just released a bait-statement scaremongering about trans people. Biden is funding and approving a genocide. Where is the harm reduction?
We do not exactly agree but I'm not trying to be argumentitive. My asking was sincere, not some attempt at a dunk. Those are reserved for zionists and such.
