So no amount of parallel awfulness would prompt you to reject both parties? As an example, if the atrocities being visited on Gaza took place in America would that be enough?

If I’ve got two options and one of them reduces harm, and the other amplifies it, the only humane thing to do is the former.

The one you say reduces harm is detaining more people at the border than trump did and both aiding and denying a genocide.

When is it too far? What would be beyond the pale enough for you to turn your back on Biden?

I have to ask again: would you still vote for Biden instead of a third party if he were supplying weapons to and denying the bombing of American hospitals?

I know I sound like a broken record, but where’s the line?

If Joe Biden were blowing up American Hospitals than we’re well past the point where voting would accomplish anything. But he’s not doing that, he’s just selling arms to a longtime ally of America and not paying close enough attention to the reasons people are telling him to stop. Still bad, but…

You won’t get an answer, these people’s script is they have enormous latitude in calling people names, moving goalposts, and generally as much punching left as they can muster, but under absolutely no circumstance can they say -in any way, shape or form- that they won’t vote for the blue team.
