and if enough people do that they lose

and then things get even worse for everyone, including Palestinians

There might not be Palestinians by November.

And not voting for a major party will fix that how?

Even if a significant portion of the population goes third party (and assuming they all agree on the same party), splitting the vote has only ever helped the opposition.

And if Democrats are just Republicans from the last election cycle, which is an absolutely unhinged notion but I'll humor you anyway, voting for Democrats is still in my best interest since Republicans are even further right

You've legitimately lost your mind in a purity test if you can't see that.

Refusing to vote for genocide isn't a purity test.

Imagine if it was your family under the rubble. Would you vote for that just because the other guy might be worse?

Yes, are you retarded? Like you've gotta be actually fucking stupid to be queer and think letting republicans win to punish dems is better for you, or Palestine. American politics is harm reduction, and the choice for less harm is clear.

I'm voting Dem downticket. Just not for Biden.

It's not like Biden has done fucking anything about Republicans attacking our rights in the State legislatures. When my red state decides to make it illegal to use the bathroom he won't do anything about it.

I'd still vote for him if he'd stop doing genocide, of course, but until then 🤷‍♀️
