You seem to misunderstand. I am not saying trump or Harris (not Biden) is a false dichotomy. I am saying, voting for Harris and fighting the system is a false dichotomy. Regardless of whether or not Harris is part of the system, you can vote Harris and protest the system.
I did think about what they said. They affectively say, I am willing to risk trump in a seemingly close election between trump and Harris because both are supportive of Israel and therefore they want to vote for a 3rd party candidate. So they are saying on a response to a post which is the meme in question, they are willing to risk a man who said that the IDF has to finish up and finish what they started because then he can feel better about his vote.
People are able to think past four years. Contributing to the current system ensures it will continue on.
You don’t vote against candidates you vote for them. Thats the crux of this problem. We are picking between who’s worst because thats culturally where america is.
Anyone who votes for their favorite candidate is doing it right. Anyone who votes to hurt another candidate is doing it wrong.
Please look into how the us election works and tell me again that it is cultural.
The us system is so broken that splitting the vote is a reality. If you believe that Harris is more your candidate than trump than voting third party makes it more likely than trump wins. That is sad reality. Voting third party is voting against your own best interest.
I feel bad for Americans but the land of the free doesn’t let you vote who you like but forces you to vote against who you hate.
Also what quote did you mean? I am still looking for an answer.
This part:
“You might lose your whole arm, instead of an hand, but that is a sacrifice that I am willing to take.”
The point here is that for most of these third party voters, the democrat and the republican are equally awful. There is no accidentally helping the opposition because both parties are the opposition.
A big problem is democrats acting like there is no comparison between them and the republicans. The democrats do awful stuff too, they have better PR and lawyers though.
And far more simply, if the democrats are currently helping kill your family and friends in your homeland, how could ou possibly argue they should vote democrat? Would you in their position?
If its not possible for her to gain more votes than she loses by taking a stance of peace, then thats not the fault of third party voters.
That quote was “misquoted” hahaha sorry but you realize that I made it up by combining the meme in the post of this comment section and the words of the user that I talked to, to highlight their nonsense. How is that misquoted? Like if I write “I am stinky”, i am not misquoting anyone because I am not assigning it to anyone. I am not claiming that it is a quote. and if I did, I would be the author of the quote and how the fuck do I misquote myself? So what are you on about here???
So now you want to tell me that a third party voter disagrees with Harris and trump in all point the same amount? What a ridiculous notion. What would they say? “I disagree that trans people should be allowed to exist but also I disagree that trans people shouldn’t be allowed to exist.” Get serious.
“Democrats acting like there is no comparison between them and the republicans” there isn’t though. One party supports a guy who has a history of praising Hilter and Nazi Germany in general, tells the IDF to finish up, supports white supremacists, and of course, expresses fascistic ideas. The other is in favor of democracy, her name is Harris. Sure, the democrats has their flaws, but there is no comparison.
“The democrats are helping to kill your family and friends…” Yes. Yes I would. Because my understanding of politics is practical and not idealistic. Harris can be convinced that supporting this is a big mistake. Trump wants them to finish up. Third party is a lost vote for the party that I agree more with, so a vote for trump in practice. So I would vote for Harris. I am sorry for the victims but I rather help them a little in reality than a lot in fantasy.
“Gain votes”: to this point, I wrote a lot and decided to keep it short. This is besides the point of our discussion. It is heavily implying that Harris is making her decision to maximize her voter turnout. It is naive to think voter turnout is the only concern of a vice president with foreign policy experience in regards of going against a close military ally and years of co-operation of their intelligence agencies. I don’t know if you know but a lot of security software used in the us is written and/or owned by former unit 8200 members; you know the israeli intelligence corps. There is a risk why the us banned Kaspersky, after Russia invasion. But as I think all of this is besides the point, I will leave this with a “I don’t support the way Israel is operating, regardless how one wants to call it, it is morally wrong. Don’t understand my criticism of nativity as a support of Harris’s stance”
I encourage you to look into why the democrats are supporting israel. They are not going to be convinced to do anything different, because this is too much of an opportunity for the west to reshape the middle east how they think is most profitable.
Modern day piracy, in my opinion. But most americans dont want to admit the reason their lives are so easy is because we make so many other lives hard or disappear.
My opinion is that there are more people in favor of Americas expansionism than are against it, and thats why the profit machine will keep turning. Its still very common for an americans self worth to be based on income, if that tells you anything.
Edit: missed the intelligence part. I do know about all of that but it still stands that the US spies on Israel, not the other way around. There is very clearly a big brother, no matter how much the little brother helps they can be replaced and banished.
Its not a false dichotomy, as the choice is trump or biden and you can only vote for one.
You also would be better off thinking about what the person wrote instead of parroting back a meme that uses similar words.
Not even sure where you think that comes from because its either horribly misquoted or its literally not a common saying.
