tHe oThEr gUy iS gOing to GenocIdE hArdEr

I know, he's a fascist, that's what they do. You claim to offer an alternative, not a lessened degree, even if history and current events proves that's a fucking lie.

I'll vote for the lesser evil, but I'll be damned if I do it without calling it evil.

No genocide is actually a genocide until it is called a genocide, at which point it is the fault of the person calling it a genocide.

You can tell it's true because of how it makes sense.

It's not genocide unless it comes from the genocide region of France
- These are just sparkling war crimes.
- Goddamnit i dunno how I'll ever use it but I'm stealing this

Ah yes, the idea that many people "support genocide"

You don't like genocide, you say? Just wait till you hear about all the fun new things the Republicans have in store for us with Project 2025!
i'm thankfully not participating in this election, but one would argue voting for any candidate that supports genocide is a vote in support for genocide.
- In a first past the post system, like the US, not voting is the same as voting for whoever you hate more. If you hate them equally, then it's the same as voting for both.
  
  The next US president will support genocide. We get to pick between the one who supports it a lot vs a little. We get to pick which one we'd rather protest under.
  
  The only way to be not complicit is to leave the country and renounce citizenship.
- The moral absolutist, black and white view of the world: as bad as any religious nut.
- Not really. It's a pretty easy choice when the options are to maintain genocide vs crank it up to 11.
  
  ...but yeah there's a 3rd option I wish we had. The absence of 'no genocide' doesn't imply the voter supports genocide, it just means the options are shit.
- Oh so you're equally happy with whatever winner? No preference whatsoever? Interesting to see that on an election with such wildly different candidates.
- A non-vote is a vote for Trump, a third-party vote under the current US voting system is a vote for Trump.
  
  I hope you enjoy your Trump vote!
- Because the vast majority of people vote because they want genocide. Flawless logic.
- I love when people have such good faith. Good talk.
- You may want to clarify of you’re not participating because you can’t or because you won’t. Because if you can’t for some reason that’s fine, and if you won’t I have a few choice words for you.
- Pretty sure most people on the planet are not participating in the next usaian election, and we're all in trouble for it. I'd vote PSL if I could.

What Reddit has that lemmy doesn’t though is something called “nuance.” Which is how you end up with shit-tier posts like this one getting upvoted here.

For all the fault Reddit has, and there is a FUCKTONS of it, no one that I’ve seen on Reddit supports genocide- that is, unless you go to specific subreddits. But then again, there are specific communities here that also seem to support it.

So, no- What the problem is here- is that OP is notorious for accusing EVERYONE of supporting genocide if they so much as even slightly disagree with their bullshit. The mod logs speak for themselves in the event anyone wants to challenge this and accuse me of lying.

In fact, they were recently banned from a community for exactly that. They have a history of spreading misinformation and trolling.

Now, let’s see how accurate I was about that whole nuance thing.

The largest problem facing wider adoption of Lemmy IMO is that many of the people who were banned from reddit for being poorly socialized ended up on a Lemmy instance, and many of them remain unwilling to view their behavior as the problem.

Many mods/admins need to do a better job of keeping their communities welcoming, imo. Engagement for engagement's sake makes no sense on nonprofit platforms.
- Lemmy being the Australia of social networks. We do what we can mate 🇦🇺
Why are we blaming voters again when a million dollar campaign loses against a historically unpopular criminal insurrectionist president... ?

The campaign has the power to pander to voters if it's clear they can't win without doing so, they just refuse to and instead are comfortably riding the threat of Trump to the finish line without offering a single thing more.

Your fellow voters that conscientiously object to genocide, are not your enemy. You are being failed by the Democrats, and you are enabling this genocidal policy by directing your anger at the voters instead of pressuring your candidate to change it. If they lose, it's a strategic failure and they are the only ones to blame for it.
- New flash- almost everyone objects to genocide. You don’t belong do some grassroots movement of high-minded academics that somehow managed to figure out that genocide is bad.

reddit knows you don't like what it's doing but reddit also knows you're still on reddit

I am not on reddit. Are you?
- closing 40 porn tabs n-no sir....
Replace reddit with democrats and you have a great parallel to our current voting situation.
- wwwwwwwwwoooaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh

Is reddit considered a microblog?

No, but OP is running low on communities he hasn’t been banned from. So, this is what works.
No, it's a link aggregator.

These are the people who would have still voted for Hitler (did ya’ll know he was elected?) because his policies were better than Himmler. Can’t argue with that level of liberal.

Wait… what? Are you trying to say that liberals would vote for Hitler?
- They are currently readying to participate in a vote between two parties that both support genocidal policies and are wholeheartedly behind one of them.
