Trump said that too and it apparently won him some Muslim votes. People with child brains are a major undecided demographic.
Edit: I am not saying Muslims are any more child-brained than the general population. As a source for the first sentence, watch this clip from yesterday's Czech TV news:
Czech TV is a public source that is trying to be as neutral as possible (which of course helps extreme views as the reporters feel the need to include them). I don't think this coverage is a bad source for a basic understanding of the situation.
Thank you for being one of the rare honest liberals that admits that this is purely cynical lip service and that you can't end a genocide by voting for the nazis committing it
not that you get much credit for that from me. you are after all a nazi acting like that cynicism is a good thing
Well you're one of the child brains in this case so good for you I guess? If your single issue is between someone who can't suddenly fix your problem overnight while trying to stop fasism and a fascist who promised genocide in the place you care plus where he wants to run as president then you need to think about your choice.
You couldn't be any more convincing that no one should ever listen to you. I know people like you are allergic to actually doing anything that will progress what you supposedly believe, but at least you could not insult people who are literally agreeing with you.
I'd rather be allergic to progressing towards my believes than actively support genocide. But I don't think that's how this works. I think the people I'm alienating myself towards are already unforgivable nazi trash who are diametrically opposed to the better world I would like to create. You on the other hand want to preserve comfort for yourself at the cost of millions of lives just because they're brown and across the world. So this childish mean girls shit you just tried to pull isn't the worst thing about you by a long shot.
What kind hellish discrimination is this?
People can decide what ever sexual or gender orientation they want to be.
Just by looking at name one cannot genderise others. Which century are living in? Even if you are so anti against genocide against brown people, what about the black people who were used to work and tortured? Accepting that as a norm seem fine ur idealism.
Try to refrain from speaking against something which Trumpists are well know for supporting. Century old traditions of oppressing the non-whites.
"Actively." There's that word. What does that mean? Usually it means you're doing something that causes another thing. Let's go with that for a second. Let's say I don't vote for Harris. Does the genocide end? Almost certainly not, so my action is not perpetuating it. If Trump wins do more people die? Probably, so taking action that causes that is actively creating that situation (and doing nothing is still a choice).
Harris at least has said continuously she wants to stop it. I'll actively be part of that instead of actively being a part of making that not happen. Fuck off you genocide enabling ignoramus. Go ahead and pretend like you're doing something in your quite place.
