So many ‘both sides are the same’ memes by Blue MAGA trying to voter shame like they do ever election year. We don’t live in a democracy, we haven’t in awhile. Another example of the plutocracy surfaced today…

You keep characterizing the role Biden is playing in this genocide as “not doing enough to prevent some different person from doing” and while garbled, it belies a tremendous dishonesty.
Biden has bypassed congress to get weapons to Israel numerous times, he had it bundled with must-pass legislation and this entire situation was made non-negotiable by his own hands.
By trying to apologize for his complicity to the point of badgering people to vote your party you implicate yourself in these crimes.
I suggest you do some introspection on how you write off the lives of tens of thousands of people because in my opinion you’re making it very clear that ultimately you see some lives as expendable. As a potential coalition partner in your voting block that doesn’t give me hope that if protecting my rights became politically inconvenient that we also wouldn’t be written off in such a way.
Let me put it this way: If there was a candidate in this election who didn’t want to give weapons to Israel (I mean, if voting for them wouldn’t just be functionally a vote for Trump), I’d be on 'em in a heartbeat. In the primary I wrote in Bernie Sanders.
That’s what I mean, you’ve written them off as “going to die by our hand anyways” and expect me to want to be complicit too, it’s not a great motivator, nor does it inspire loyalty.
I don’t think I would recommend loyalty to any American politician. Even for the ones I like, that’s just not how I look at it.
In any case though, cheers + all the best
