But there is an amount you were able to accept, an acceptable amount, if you will.
No. The genocide was just as bad under Democrats, you were just a genocide denier when it was your team doing it. In that sense, it's better that Trump won, because at least liberals acknowledge what's happening when he does it, rather than downplaying and denying it.
And that's a real killer for the "lesser evil argument": that the people making it seem to lose the ability to appraise their evil correctly.
Jesus Christ. You people really do only care about appearances and don't give a shit about human life. She also planned on exterminateing the Palestinians and building on the mass graves, but because it would just be fascist settlements and not something garish like a resort, that's fine?
Again, the lesser evil argument falls flat when everyone espousing it loses their ability to identify what evil is.
And there is: it's all fine so long as you personally aren't on the receiving end of the genocide.
When the Democratic party decides that Trans people are a necessary sacrifice and joins the Republicans in calling for their repression, are you still going to be demanding everyone votes for them?
