We have so much in common! I wish we had elected someone who wouldn’t simultaneously give Ukraine over to Russia, and ensure the total annihilation of the Palestinian people, and remove all access to gender affirming care for trans people in the country I live in.

But I guess the fact that I thought we should vote for the person who would kill fewer people means I support genocide, at least according to the 196 mod team

For your last paragraph,
That’s a false matter and conflict as a stranger to your country.
The real issue, isn’t you or non-voters, the real issue is the fucking trump voters.

Don’t let them divide us on this one.

Sister, tell the mod team that. Non-voters are the ones saying voters support genocide.

Explicitly mentioning it, despite already saying you support Ukraine. I like it. Thanks.

I should not explain my opinions/positions regarding this,
As a trans person, i cant be on the putin’s side you see ;)

But, i hate to see things like “kill the russians” etc,
Do we accept “kill jews/israelien” ? No, and in good reason,
Why should we accept then the “kill all russians” etc ?

Well, there’s a lot of Mexicans in the US who voted for Trump. There’s even a meme regarding people voting for leopards eating their faces, so you know, you can’t trust people to be reasonable always.

Who has said “kill all Russians”? Who has said “kill all jews”? (Aside from Hitler and his ilk)

I think it would be disingenuous to pretend like the majority of people are for massacring Israelis or Russians, when they’re clearly advocating for stopping the genocide in Gaza and Russia backing off from their attack on Ukraine. They broke international laws. Both of those parties, that is. That’s just… not on. Being against those actions and the people who perpetrated them doesn’t mean you’re advocating for “an eye for an eye” (a genocide for a genocide).
