Once again I can not stop it but I can not give it my active support.

All of my neighbors rights? What about the rights of children not to die? We might be able to roll anything he does back, you can not roll back death

You ask me to support your hypothetical about what trump might do, I know what Biden is doing.

Given the options of guaranteed genocide or potential, why not pick the non guaranteed option?

So stop paying taxes. Otherwise you're funding child murder.

If only I could. The government takes all my taxes out without me being given the option. Yay mandatory sales tax!

You could. You could move out of the US and refuse to buy any US products. It would come at great personal cost to you, but it would mean you are completely not complicit.

Do your morals stop when you have to personally give or sacrifice? You refuse to vote because it would make you complicit, but you don't refuse to live in and contribute to a country that makes you complicit.

To be clear, I don't think this makes you a hypocrite. I'm just further pointing out that your absolutist morals aren't realistically sensible, and that your morals clearly aren't absolute if there's boundaries you won't cross to meet them.

Give me the money to afford it and get me and my family a visa to a different place.

There is a difference between what I can actually do and what I wish I could.

Here’s the thing, other countries don’t want to accept Americans because they see how we are.

So while theoretically I could do what you say, it’s going to take tens to hundreds of thousands to pull off which I can not to without abandoning my responsibilities to my children.

So, I do what little I can.

Perhaps, instead of working against me for the worst democratic candidate, you people to try to nominate someone who is actually worth a damn it does not support fucking genocide!

Got it, those innocent kids only matter if it isn't an inconvenience to your wallet or requires effort. Moving away for a clean conscience is too much, but voting for what's the best realistic scenario is an affront to your values.

So go ahead. Vote how you want. But know that if you don't vote against Trump, you're helping out Israel. It seems you're just fine with that though.
