The radical centrist has entered the debate: “Look, all’s I’m saying is that some genocide is, like, way better than a lot of genocide. So we should vote for the little genocide feller instead of the lot of genocide feller. It’s what Jesus would have wanted. And like, there’s clearly no other option than killing an entire group of people.”
It’s been so shocking in the last 6 months to see the libs actually adopt the “But just some genocide, let’s compromise!” position completely unironically.
Do they not see how monstrous they sound? Do they not understand that cloaking reprehensible actions with “civility” is what actual fascists do? Are they not aware that they are behaving like fascists? Do they have any self awareness at all? (I know the answer to these is just “no” but it still blows my mind how they can just be like this without any sort of crisis of conscience or anything).
Joe Biden is “only” Genocide abroad, and probably less of it.
Therefore, a vote for Joe Biden is a Vote against genocide.
No, it doesn’t matter that he’s an active participant in the apparatus that’s creating the genocide, because if he’s in office there’s less genocide. Which is the important part, and pretending otherwise is sophistry. If you abstain from voting, you are increasing the likelihood of more genocide and if you discourage others from voting, you are an active participant in the overall social apparatus that is probabilistically increasing the amount of genocide.
The utility calculation is dead simple: more votes for Biden in key states makes more genocide less likely, and discouraging people from voting for Biden makes more genocide more likely. Therefore, discouraging people from voting for Biden is a pro-genocide strategy and voting for Biden in battleground states is an anti-genocide strategy. You should vote for Biden unless you live in a solid blue state, and even then it’s not a bad idea.
TLDR: if you encourage people to not vote for Biden, that’s supporting genocide. Accelerationism never works for us.
According to the mods, hamid is “insanely toxic” and “trolling” but the other guy is simply “uncivil.” I wish nothing but the worst on lemmy.world mods.
fediverse is a shitstain except for hexbear. straight up the only reason to stay federated is for when people come to realize this fact and listen to all the free ads whiners give us
Hamid is a cool guy and as a secondary thing, why is it that Iranians are so incredibly good at cursing people out? I remember back during the Soleimani assassination fallout there were some real bangers like “You child of seven generations of bastards”
Ah, you’re privileged enough to think you’re insulated from any actual consequences of the election and fuck those other people, right?
Considering the number of trans people on Hexbear, what are they talking about? Trans people are a big target. And I don’t just identify as non-binary, I have it on legal documents too.
Or do they think we’re all wealthy? mutual_aid is quite a busy sub, and while the total donation amount isn’t small, it’s not really all that big either.
Admittedly we do have a bit of a anti-cracker-aktion problem, but em_poc is still fairly active.
But also, Hexbear is just a shitposting site. I (and I’m sure most everybody else here) do organizing and take real action in real life.
