    You know people can just read the comments themselves right. Dont need your edit biasing things.

    Have you considered that the vote between democrats and republicans is really about whether we will abuse foreigners for our wealth or abuse our own people? Which one is the noble one to vote for again? The one that won’t harm you right?

      Noble?

      Why are you making this about what’s noble?

      And are you really suggesting that, if given the choice between their own survival and the survival of people on the other side of the planet, rational voters should pick the latter?

        Of course not.

        They’re suggesting that between the choices of

        • Americans minorities not being killed + the death of people on the other side of the planet

        • American minorities being killed + the death of people on the other side of the planet

        The only noble thing to do is ensure that the second choice is chosen. As many innocent people, and especially minorities, should die as possible - that’s the only moral choice, after all!

          No, they really are picking the latter. They just responded to me. They think self-preservation is not the rational choice for someone to make.

        Yes, you are responsible for your own nation at least. Shouldnt be messing with other countries people to begin with. Ideally America would stop being so fucking greedy altogether.

      Funny enough, I predicted that the point du jour would change from “Genocide is bad!” to “It’s only fair that Americans get genocided too”

        My point is America currently and historically does not care about people, it cares about money and power. Where you take it from is the choice.

        If the democrats won we would still be an awful country just in a slightly different way.

          Not really, since Republicans are still killing people overseas. But you don’t care about that - you just want as many minorities to be killed as possible.

            Maybe, they did claim they would back out of all that stuff. Probably not true because noone gives away power, but the democrats weren’t going to either.

              What stuff did they say they were going to back out of? The genocide they explicitly said they want to intensify?
