        It’s a rational decision. Voting against Biden (and discouraging people about Biden online constantly) helps get Trump elected, which means you’re voting for 2 genocides since Trump is clearly planning to greatly harm Central and Southern Americans in the US.

          Trump is clearly planning to greatly harm Central and Southern Americans in the US

          And Palestinians (he was the one that moved the embassy to Jerusalem, remember)

          And US journalists who report on corruption in Saudi Arabia

          And Ukrainians

          And anyone in government who won’t support his crimes

          And ordinary-person election workers who won’t support his crimes

          And via his supporters, literally anyone in or out of government who actively opposes his crimes, with a pretty broad definition of “opposes”

          And women who have medical problems during a pregnancy

          And I’m sure lots of other people who don’t spring to mind right at the moment. But surely that should be enough of a list. 2 Gaza-size genocides as the final outcome of a second Trump term would mean we got very very lucky.

            Good point, Trump taking office would also mean destruction for Ukraine. And of course he has broadly threatened millions of American citizens too.
