The amount of “If you vote for either party you are rewarding the capitalist genociders” going around the “lefty” communities here and elsewhere is off the charts. Good to hear a voice of reason instead of “leftists, don’t vote” propaganda.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I would bet most of those voices originate from a dark room filled with instigators and rabble rousers located in an adversarial nation.
One of those people is watching this thread apparently, you were already at zero.
The only genocide they care about is the one they can use to get fascism elected.
We're at the point where disagreeing with innocents being killed by state terrorism is not acceptable. That's the kind of thinking that will ensure nothing will ever get better, well done!
Why would I stop acting on my morality?
Why would I listen to you when you ask me to stop doing so?
I think killing innocent people is wrong. So do you. But I'm the only one consistent about it, because I maintain saying that in the face of it happening. Maybe you could give it a try.
You can ask me to sacrifice children I don't know from a country I have never met for the good of people that you feel closer to, because they are people more like you, in your country, until you are hoarse. It won't move me. This is because my moral standards are that innocent people are innocent, no matter where they are. I'm not willing to trade some people for other people just because of my personal biases towards the groups I have been part of.
I act on the principle that killing innocent people is wrong. You don't disagree with that, really. I'm not sure you even know what you're angry about.
People pushing for third party right now are either dumb or indifferent to Trump winning. They want the chaos, they’re fascinated by the flight of that molotov cocktail.
