    Wouldn’t it be much better if no-one gets hanged or genocided?

    Have you got a way to make that happen?

      “If we all clap our hands and believe really hard, the majority of the electorate will come around to our thinking inside of the next month!”

      I don’t know why we weren’t doing that BEFORE a few weeks before election day. Apparently it’s only viable when there’s a serious risk of fascism. I’m sure these people aren’t just trying to get their favorite fascist in office.

      Yes, that’s what the demand is from the democrat representatives that they should include our demand and stop supporting/funding genocide. (people demand in a democratic nation) If they can save large number of people from getting hanged then they can also stop facilitating genocide. Instead genociders are welcomed to give speeches in U.S. congress.

            And you have no plan to get them to agree to such a demand that doesn’t amount to “If we don’t vote and allow fascists to win, this will somehow be a moral victory for anti-genocide”

              We sent posts, emailed the representatives, filed cases, protested (campuses and other places), protested in both major parties rallies. Bernie tried to pass bill to stop funding of genocide. But who listens to Bernie, no one.

                No no, I didn’t ask “Did you put in effort”. There is no gold star for effort. It was asked if you had a viable plan.
