      Again, please tell me who I should vote for to keep my daughter safe.

      Because your answer so far seems to be ‘not Biden.’ That means you think Trump does not already have a record of oppressing queer people (he does)- therefore vote for Trump, that Biden’s record is worse (please show evidence of this)- therefore vote for Trump, or that they’re both equally bad in that regard and so I should vote for the person who has a chance of defeating both of them.

      So is it that I should vote for Trump or is it that there is a third option that you refuse to name?

        Cornel West, Jill Stein or any other third party

        Nothing is going to happen in 2024 to your daughter. Trump is going to screw over some Mexicans and Arabs like he did in 2016 and that’s it.

        America needs to move way further to the right until Adolf Hitler2 with Nazi tattoos shows up before you see domestic Genocide.

        And that will happen if the current cycle of “picking the lesser evil” continues. Because America will keep shifting to the right.

        Either you break the cycle or eventually you will actually reach the Genocide point. If the Democrats learn that they can be Republicans and win elections, they will keep being republicans.

          Cornell West, Jill Stein or any other third party

          Please present evidence any of them have a chance of winning.

          Nothing is going to happen in 2024 to your daughter.

          You’re right. Because Trump gets sworn in January 20th, 2025 if he wins. And then he has a good chance of putting my daughter in a camp.

          But you don’t care about queer people.

              I don’t need to ask. They think I should vote for Cornell West at the expense of my daughter’s life.

              I doubt you give a shit about queer people either.

              And if I asked you, you’d probably say you do. And then tell me that I shouldn’t try to save my daughter’s life by voting for a candidate who has a legitimate chance of winning but instead vote for the guy who is a write-in for most states.

              Because you likely also do not give a shit about queer people.

              Funny thing about bigots. So many of them hate to admit it.

              Americans who do not hide their adherence to traditional religious beliefs about homosexual conduct will be ‘labeled as bigots and treated as such’ by the government

              He also does not give a shit about queer people and also does not think anyone should vote for Biden. You three should get along swimmingly.

                this is pigeonholeing. you could deal with what I actually say instead of what other people said that you wish to argue with.

                  What you have said to me so far was that Cornel West has a chance because he has 3% of the vote and that I should ask someone instead of saying they don’t give a shit about queer people.

                  The first is a laughably ignorant understanding of statistics, polling and elections. The second is just laughable.

                  You have told other people, however, to vote for West or Stein. Neither of which has a statistically likely chance of winning. Something very unusual would have to happen for them to win. So instead of stopping the coming queer genocide, you think people should vote for an almost guaranteed loser.

                  You don’t give a shit about queer people and neither does your buddy.
