You can have that discussion but neither makes a person a murderer, thats the point. Much like a person who refuses to vote for a democrat or republican is not genocidal.

Besides all that, there is no consensus that the democrat track is less genocidal than the republican track. Try the trolley problem again but with equal life on each side.

If voting for Harris makes you complicit, not voting does as well. Neither option is "murderer" or "genocidal". But you contribute your small part to the outcome just by virtue of having some modicum of influence.
