I keep telling people- the queer genocide that has already begun with Republican restrictions on trans rights and medical care is going to ramp way up and encompass queer people as a whole. Including my daughter.
And yet I keep being told I'm excusing genocide by voting for Biden in order to stop Trump from killing her.
Lucky. I'm being told that I'm endorsing it for the same reason.
The thing I love is that I ask them- name me a candidate that has a significant chance of beating Trump who isn't Joe Biden.
Obviously, they can't. But they try very hard to avoid that.
Yeah. I’ll be doing this from now on. If it’ll shut them up.
I will now be voting for Biden exclusively for this guys daughter
And I didn't even get you anything!
Do you think this might be conflating internet-style "genocide" with the kind of genocide that involves gunning people down at an aid truck while they queue for food during a famine?
Moot point as I really don't think either party would be doing anything to stop the crisis. I do think we should be more careful with how we dilute language, though.
Not all genocides involve shooting people at an aid truck.

And if you think Joe Biden is in favor of any of that, you're insane.
I am getting really fucking tired of people telling me I should sacrifice my daughter to this genocide because there's another genocide somewhere else. Along with people like you denying it's even happening so you can accuse people like me of supporting a different genocide.
Well, don't get hysterical. I don't want to kill your child, and I'm not accusing you of supporting... anything, really.
Denying that an ongoing genocide perpetuated by Republicans that my child will be caught up in if Trump gets elected isn't even happening implies that, at the very least, you don't give a shit if my child dies and that voting for Biden wouldn't help anyway.
Because it's either that or you are totally ignorant of many years of Republican attitudes towards queer people in the U.S. and the many attempts to erase them from society which are only gaining steam.
And I am giving you the benefit of the doubt that you don't live under a rock.
I don't live in the USA, no.
Okay, so then maybe don't deny a genocide you've just been informed exists just because you don't live in that country.
You spend too much time on the internet.
You spend too much time denying that a genocide exists despite the overwhelming evidence.
