Genocide is genocide.
Harm reduction arguments only work to a point. If genocide is still the outcome, then it isn't really harm reduction.
If we're here now, then the harm reduction arguments worked while the plan didn't.
What does that even mean?
We are now in a scenario where we'll settle for a genocidal monster, because we keep voting for harm reduction. Harm reduction failed in practice; it was never a good idea in the first place.
