    It’s closer to “when your options are the genocide far away and a genocide here, or a genocide far away”

    Not voting doesn’t change a thing. The genocide far away will happen no matter what so the moral thing to do is to vote for the option that will minimize the amount of genocide being done. In the meantime the only thing you can do about the genocide far away is to call your congress and write to your local representative. It feels like almost nothing, but frankly there is almost nothing we can do. We can only minimize the total harm done by voting for Democrats instead of just letting Republicans run wild both domestically and abroad.

      Your opening Salvo doesn’t make sense.

      The prompt is what you vote for. When you don’t, it’s not for any of it.

      Democrats have a history of doing this when the DNC gets all Kissinger.

      Republicans do either way.

      That’s the history.
