The US primaries and the general election are two different things. Voting uncommitted in the primary expresses support for the Palestinian plight and does not give Republicans any ground.

The uncommitted movement presents a safe and effective avenue for voters to voice dissatisfaction with President Biden’s policies, particularly with the Israel-Hamas conflict. By doing so in the primary, voters can signal discontent without risking a Republican victory in the general election. The purpose is to send a wake-up call to the Biden administration that it is failing to address issues and effectively engage with the party, vis a vis that Biden is enabling a genocide.

That being said, anyone who calls for an uncommitted or third-party vote in the general election i will personally kick in the gender neutral balls (in Minecraft).

you aren’t the first to say so. any thoughts of a better way to write it?

i have creator’s bias so i readily admit it may not be the best in rhetorical quality even though i thought it was good enough to post originally

Get rid of it because it doesn’t apply to the primaries and if you apply it to the general election you sound like you are trying to astroturf the election.

The people you depict as the angry villagers are saying that because a third party vote or abstaining is effectively a vote for Trump.

No one’s saying that about the primaries because Trump can’t win the Democrat primaries.
