    This feels like trying to explain to someone that you can have 2 different infinities, and one is larger than the other. Both are bad, but one is clearly worse.

    “What’s the difference if you end up at the same place?”

    The difference is that 2 genocides is not the same place as 1 genocide. It is reasonable to criticize the people supporting a genocide while at the same time recognizing that the people wanting more genocides are not the same.

      You are already a fascist. You have already approved the genocide of a nation for the sake of what? Saving minorities in America? Guess what you will send them straight to the furnace the moment they become “expedient” to sacrifice for your own gain.

      The only real difference is that there are consequences for you at home in the US and that’s the only part you actually care about

        I don’t live in the US, there are no consequences for me as a result of Trump being president. Significantly more people are being harmed under Trump and I actually give a shit about other people instead of putting some idealized moral high ground above actual human lives.

          Zero genocide isn’t an idealised moral high ground and it’s incredibly telling to see someone excuse it.

            “I won’t vote for someone who isn’t speaking about X” is an idealized moral high ground when the alternative is not only X getting worse, but even more X happening.

              Fuck you you genocidal prick. Substituting genocide for “x” is disgusting. It’s not “oh there’s just this one bad thing”. It’s genocide. It’s literally the worst possible thing you can do on this planet. And you’re saying other people have an idealised moral high ground because they think GENOCIDE is something that should never be done.

                Fuck you you genocidal prick.

                Right, the person complaining about there being more genocide means they… want genocide? What a useful thought terminating cliche you have there that gives you an excuse to avoid questioning if your own actions could have been better.

                It’s genocide. It’s literally the worst possible thing you can do on this planet

                You know what’s worse than genocide? More genocide. I don’t know how to simplify this further for you.

      How do you find yourself typing something like this and not pause for thought?

        What’s worse than genocide?

        2 genocides.

        I don’t know how to make this any more clear.

          Hell yeah brother. Personally I think Hitler was fucking great and would vote for him in a heartbeat if it meant stopping Himmler from being in charge. /s

            I think Hitler was fucking great

            At what point did I say Democrats were fucking great? They are absolute shit and people need to stand up for something better.

            You also need to live in fucking reality a realize that stopping things from getting a lot fucking worse is worthwhile while you work on trying to get something better.

            Also, Republican’s are the Nazi’s here. You refused to vote against Hitler.

              So glad actual hitler was defeated by voting against him.

              The people who make compromises with the Nazis have convinced you that voting is the most important and only tool at your disposal.

                I’m so glad Hitler was voted into power and not Himmler that would’ve been bad.

                Never said that either. You seem to be having a conversation with someone else so I’ll leave you to it.
