Seriously I’m so confused on this. The USA has a 2 party system. You either vote for Biden or you get Trump. Abstaining from the vote you get Trump. MAGA will have a 100% turnout for their God Emperor.

Trump supports Israel 100%. Again, by not voting for Biden the reality is you’re voting for Trump who is even more supportive of Israel and will also attempt to upend democracy in the west.

You don’t have any options here that support Palestine. The reality of the situation is you either get Biden or Trump and the latter is infinitely worse for the ideal you’re trying to uphold by abstaining. That’s how politics work in the US. You might not like it, it sucks, but unfortunately that’s just the way things work.

    Any one who is saying the wouldn’t vote for Biden because they are taking a stance against genocide is unlikely to have voted for Biden first place, or even to have voted at all, and can and should be safely ignored. They aren’t arguing in good faith.

      I don’t care. Apathy is the enemy. These people spread it. They should be challenged, not let to convince people not to vote.
