Biden’s approach to Israel has been disastrous, both morally and strategically – and it could cost Harris dearly

    I don’t believe in accepting “the lesser of two evils”

    I’ve been seeing this argument alot this electing cycle. Can you provide an example of a politician that has done committed or supported an action that could be considered “evil”?

        Do you think that Trump or the Republicans will halt military support to Isreal?

        You also have not answered my question. Are you simply not voting because all politicians are just various degrees of evil and voting for any of them will be “accepting ‘the lesser of two evils’”?

        I am genuinely interested in knowing the point of that statement. Is it to encourage people not to vote?

        Are their any other topics that you apply this mentality to or is it just this election?

        Edit: To answer your question, no, I do not support genocide. I do however believe in choosing the lesser of two evils when there are no better alternatives.

          If you advocate supporting Harris, you advocate for genocide.

            No need to apologize. You do what you think is best.

            Is your intent to not vote or do you have a candidate that you believe will halt the military support of Isreal?

                Fair enough.

                I personally see our options with Isreal as a no win scenario for the US people. With the “Peace to Prosperity” agreement Trump signed with Isreal without even inviting Palestine to the table, he pretty much announced that his view of peace in the area was the genocide we see happening now. Then Biden pretty much agreed with his military support. I was hoping that I had missed some 3rd party candidate proposing a alternative, but I guess not.
