As a trans person, don't hide behind me to defend your support of genocide!

Under no conceivable circumstance does anyone have a moral responsibility to support genocide. Even if a killer had me at gunpoint, I would sooner die than become an accomplice to mass murder!

phoenix-objection-1phoenix-objection-2 I reject your framing of the issue! There comes a point where "lesser evilism" no longer applies. If the election were between Mussolini and Hitler, would you tell me that I have a moral responsibility to vote Mussolini? Would you tell me that refusing to legitimize such an election is "complacency?" This is the logical conclusion of your reasoning!
