    I can’t be threatened, shamed or semantically maneuvered into supporting it.

    You’re literally supporting genocide by your acquiescence to a Trump regime, but I guess if there’s MORE genocide it doesn’t count, like a stack overflow. Thanks for sending American minorities to be murdered, we’re real grateful to your moral purity.

      May I shift gears here for a moment?

      This is the trolley problem. “Voting for Biden” is pulling the switch to divert the trolley onto the track which kills one person instead of five (although there may be disagreement on how many people are tied to each track).

      I totally get the “I didn’t fucking ask for this choice to be put in front of me, so I’m not playing at all” outlook, but the fact is that the choice is there, and doing nothing is a choice.
