[–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world -3 points 2 years ago (1 child) It was a simple question. Answer first please, then I’ll address a counter argument. Please don’t try to deflect. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) Whatever. Fine. Sure. Why does it matter? Both mainstream candidates have promised to continue funneling arms to Israel. If people who voted for Hitler were complicit in fascism, and that analogy extends to the current election (and I'm not at all convinced it does), then anyone who votes for either major political party is complicit in fascism. Do you believe this? If so, then just say you object to point 1 and let's discuss third-party voting. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago I do believe that voting for either party is complicit in the genocide, myself included. I can recognize this and still vote for Harris to prevent damage to marginalized communities. But I don’t denigrate those that choose to not vote or vote third party because of the genocide. I get it. permalink fedilink source parent
