Typical "both sides" bullshit.
Yes they're both shit, but one IS much worse than the other. Don't let this kind of shit tier meme allow fascism to slide in (yes trump is a textbook fascist)
- Biden sidestepped congress to fund and provide weapons for genocide and the dnc went to court to tell their voters to eat shit, pretty fascist if you ask me even if they wave a pride flag as they fascist.
  
  Pretty crazy how everyone is cool with fascism as long as they leave the gays alone (because, famously, fascists who pit group A against group B have NEVER gone after group A once Group B was subjugated)
  
  Yeah that's not fascism. Pretty fucked up, sure, but not fascism
Easy choice.
BUT THAT ONE PERCENTTTTTT
- I think even one life of a trans person or Palestinian is important.
  
  You'd still be voting for the genocide of 99%. And voting for Hindenburg did not stop Hitler.
  
  Of course, you do have the option of voting for someone other than the genocidal candidates, and organizing and taking direct action to put pressure on this genocidal imperialist state.
I've decided to abstain from voting, this time.

Granted, it may be because I'm nowhere near the U.S.

If you are, though, do pick your poison. You have this system, make use of it. And none of that "but it won't change anything" nonsense!
- Electoralism is a bullshit. Only a revolution will change things
  
  Revolutions, on average, make things worse. Seriously, the outcome of the median revolution is pretty terrible. Things need to be incredibly bad before it's an improvement in expected value to do a revolution, instead of trying to improve the existing system.
  
  Sure the country needs to be turned off and on again, but clearly the median isn't interested in that. So what remains? The system.
