    I’m not a US citizen so please could you explain this line of reasoning to me?

    Trump was the person that recognised Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, despite absolutely no need to. I haven’t heard of anything that suggests he wouldn’t support Israel wholeheartedly.

    So in a choice that is Biden Vs Trump. Why is Biden the worse choice?

    Now don’t get me wrong, as a Brit I know how much of a curse FPTP is - but it’s a pipe dream to think a 3rd party candidate hae a chance of winning in this situation, surely?

    So what’s the logic of these kinds of posts? If you don’t vote for Biden, won’t you just end up with something worse?

      The thing is that voting for Biden does nothing but help along the US’s slide into fascism. Democrats need to know they can’t have their cake and eat it too, and that their good cop bad cop act won’t work, before they’ll actually do anything. Biden is right of Reagan on a ton of issues (including Israel), so clearly just voting for the lesser evil isn’t working.

      There has to be a line somewhere after which the status quo can’t continue, and genocide is handily past that line.

        What the fuck are you on about? There are literally two options in the upcoming election and any suggestion to the contrary is just fooling yourself.

        There’s Biden and then there is “Dictator for a day” Trump. Even if Biden is the “slide into fascism” that you claim with no evidence presented to support, how is the choice between maybe fascism and absolutely fascism even a choice?

      The person you are trying to reach right now does not think more than half a move ahead. Save your energy for someone that is not already politically involved, it will be better for everyone, including this turd.

      People who think like the person above are also inherently fine abandoning Ukraine, given that is also at stake in the current US election.

      Surely this couldn’t be a narrative fueled by Russian trolls, they’d never do something like that…

        Yesterday when I saw your reply it and the other one criticising the person I replied to were at a positive vote score, and my comment itself had about 20 to 30 positive votes.

        Now your comment and mine have dropped by about 20 votes each, without any further lemming comment.

        A bit suspicious…
