    I don’t conflate voting for one of two options with consent or endorsement of all their actions.

    This is why the whole system needs to change.

    Can it be done before the next president’s term starts? Unlikely, so maybe we need to hold our noses and vote against Netanyahu’s preferred candidate.

      It doesn’t matter if you believe it. I’m entirely sure, in fact I know for a fact, there were Nazis that solely supported the economic rhetoric of the party.

      They were exactly as responsible as every other Nazi.

        As someone has already pointed out, the election that Hitler did well in causing his appointment to Chancellor was one with a high abstention rate - especially from Communists and Socialist who chose moral purity over voting against Nazis.

        You do you. But your crusade on others trying to hold off a second genocide against migrants of colour and LGBTQI people in the US doesn’t seem the best outcome to me.

        Unless you know a third candidate that won’t persecute people in the US and will also end support for Israel.
