This isn’t profound. It’s actually just a dumb “both sides bad” take said by people who would snub a candidate they agree with on 70% of issues with a 50% chance of winning for a person they agree with on 90% of issues with a 5% chance of winning.
The 70% candidate losing isn’t a win for your cause because now a person you agree with on 5% of issues just won.
I dont agree with Democrats on 70% of issues. You people keep making these disingenuous framings where the issue people have with democrats is just some teeny tiny thing and not their policies. The democrats committed a genocide, that was the straw that broke the camels back - It is not the one thing we disagree on. I dont like them deporting more people than Trump, I dont like their fanatic militarism, their police state, the way they fuck the climate, healthcare, their kowtowing to corporate interests, their constant sabotaging of left-wing movements, their starvation of people through sanctions, their repressive violence against democratic protesters, their interventionism, their brinksmanship, etc.
And even if it was, GENOCIDE is pretty fucking massive. Voting for a genocide will only end up with you getting sent to the camps as well.
I - and seemingly many others - have been willing to accept voting for democrats despite their many many many dogshit policies, as long as they: Protected Roe v. Wade and didnt gleefully directly commit a genocide.
And they fucked it up. So now people won’t vote for them, because there is no reason to.
