okay but genocide is genocide. theres a moral event horizon issue here. and on the other side, everyone needs to die, and arguing how badly they need to die is pointless. the harm is inexcusable, and I will not legitimize it.

me being killed is me being killed-the biden government won't stop it, and if he's in power; his supporters will not step in to help; they'll beg daddy-daddy doesn't care, and if he did all he'd do is send cops, who will already be there hooded and ready if he's not, maybe we'll get resistance libs, and they at least won't snich if they find me in their attic.

and the climate apocalypse; they both stand in the way. I guess biden is less in the way? dead is still dead. trumps a little faster, but I like my gallows humor, so it about breaks even in my book.

and then theres the fact of legitimizing it. I live in California; my vote does not count for decision making. it will bestatistically fucked into oblivion. I don't want to look like I legitimized a system that does that, that enforces abortion bans anf private insurance and illegal plants and all the other shit that upwards of 60% of Americans, a statistically shocking majority would rather it not, then calls it democracy. I don't want things nobody wanted and nobody voted for shoved down my throat and told its my voice, and if you want me to participate in that, you'd better be offering something I fucking want.
