  But, y’know, if the imperialism and genocide is invariant between the options, I’m still gonna vote for the one doing fewer other terrible things 🤷🏼 What’s the worst that could happen if I let the democrats know that not even genocide will cost them the election? What’s the worst that could happen by further entrenching the oligarchic uniparty? Surely the democrats won’t ever put me in the camps! Obviously I’m also going to do everything I can to get to a point where I don’t have an imperialist, genocidal government. Mutual aid, canvassing for leftists in the primaries, political organization, developing community, taking over small municipalities, labor organization, etc. No critique here, glad to see at least one blue dog understands there’s other tools. All of which is gonna be a lot harder now that this side has declared antifascists to be a terrorist organization, and arrests people for pamphlets. As opposed to the other side who also arrested peaceful protesters on bogus charges. Who also beat up protesters. Who also broke up strikes. Who also hounded leftist organisers. The difference is that the media is more critical of it now. People are much more agitated under Trump. Organizing is easier in many ways.

  That's a point we can debate (not that I feel like doing so right now, but it's at least connected to reality enough to be worth debating). My problem is with the parent commenter, who's acting like all the "purity tests" are about trivial minutae and not how many children each candidate wants to bomb to death.
