And how is it voting a person that actively funding a genocide will help Palestinian?
Why are you so vehemently against the stoppage of the genocide?

I already posted many times, all that need to happen is just Biden to condemn Israel's actions and stop his support.
But you keep dodging around and refuse that Biden should change his policy.
I'm not against it, but the situation we find ourselves in is that he will still be the best option we have even if he does nothing to help Palestine. In that scenario, your options are help Americans or help no one. There would be no third option.

We are stuck with a catch 22. We need to criticize our elected officials and hold them accountable, but we also can't afford to not vote and let the worst choice win. You aren't being practical. You're at the switch of the trolley tracks and choosing to leave it up to fate rather than protect as many people as possible. Saving none because you can't save all is not a sensible statement. It's not logical and you can't even call it the proper emotional response. For the millionth time, Biden is not the one primarily being punished if you let the GOP win. It's innocent Americans. You live in America and you're saying "If we can't save Palestine from Israel, then innocent Americans deserve to die."

We aren't voting for Biden. We're voting against Trump. If that has to mean Biden wins, oh well. We have to be adults and realize voting isn't always about who you like or who you want. It can be about who you hate the least, about which choice will do the least harm rather than which one will do the most good. A vote doesn't automatically imply support.
