Israel is absolutely conducting genocide and Biden is absolutely bankrolling it, yes. Trump would at minimum maintain that status quo and has not indicated he wouldn't.
Let's follow your theory-less LARP to completion. You valiantly spoil your vote and vote third party, for a middling demsoc with a shady past. What next? Do you think Trump isn't going to absolutely dumpster Biden if every single leftist in America votes third party?
Trump takes office, and maintains America's genocidal campaign. But hey! At least you can say you voted third party, amiright? No moral responsibility here! You washed your hands proudly as Trump doubles down the ethnic cleansing campaign to wipe Gaza off the map.
You've also said grassroots movements won't do anything either, so you're anti-grass touching and clearly can't be counted on to help win local elections or organize unions on the ground, you know, actual leftist movements that stand a chance of moving America to the left and winning local battles.
Is your end game to just Stan Trump, or is it to pretend you're not morally responsible for Trump genociding Palestinians? Either way, you're certainly not a leftist, because you advocate against leftism.
You aren't drawing the line, lmao. You're both refusing grassroots movements and allowing the other genocidal leader who will probably double down, purely so you can virtue signal.
How do you legitimately see your LARP going? Play it out for me.
Walk me through your LARP. I'm not advocating for grassroots democrat promotion, but grassroots Unionization and winning of local elections, and you know that because I've already said that. Of course, unless you think electing Socialists to local office and unionizing is genocide, in which case you're probably a fed.
Seriously, walk me through. You aren't unionizing or trying to get Socialists elected locally, and are actively voting third party in the federal election. Do you truly think anything else will happen other than handing the win to Trump, enabling even worse genocide? How are you planning on helping the people of Gaza if you aren't trying to actually put pressure on from below?
You're LARPing, you haven't read theory, you're just a fed or a bot.
