The lesser evil is doing genocide.

Trump is the vulgar evil, which is why under Trump we saw the largest protest movement in US history. When Trump does and says his stupid evil bullshit, people fight back.

Bipartisanship is the boring evil, it tries to lull people to sleep. People in the US are still fighting back against the bipartisan genocide consensus, but it can't reach the same critical mass of outrage that happened under Trump.

As far as I'm concerned Democrats who appeal to bipartisanship are fascist collaborators, and collaborators are not a lesser evil.

The lesser evil is doing genocide.

And the greater evil will do more genocide. It's not a hard concept to grasp.

If the government is doing genocide it must be stopped by any means necessary.

Well, go for it. Good luck.

And how? With two bad choices (but one less bad)? You want to run against the strongest military in the world and police? Don't get me wrong, but I would also wish for different politics in the USA, but it ain't realistically happen. So as European I can just hope they don't vote for that racist narcissistic douchebag Trump. I mean my respect for Americans suffered irreversibly when he got elected in the first place...

The anti-genocide protests have had a huge impact on the race, I think that gives us a model going forward. We need more occupations, more public demonstration, more disrupted campaign events, and more confrontation with the bipartisan genocide consensus. It's not hopeless. We can do it.

Yeah I hope the best with this, especially USA could profit of more socialism (it's sad how extreme the gap between rich and poor is, and how much mental health has decreased there), but plz not with Trump.
