Third parties in the US are unserious. I wish that weren’t the case but that’s the reality.
Let’s steel man your argument and say you’re 100% correct. Throwing away your vote or not voting is still morally better than voting for someone who won’t commit to not enabling a genocide.
And that’s assuming your predicate is correct, which it’s not.
You can fight the trolley itself instead of justifying supporting genocide.
PS this is the real world not a meme. Political power is not a trolley problem, it is a matter of organization and education. You disempower yourself and others by pretending you can only backseat cheerlead a genocide. Instead of supporting this, go and join an organization that is actually opposing it and start doing work.
In the US, every student is eventually presented with lessons on the Holocaust and asked to think about what they would do. Right now, to be honest, your answer would have to be, “support it using poorly thought out propaganda”.
You said to Organize and admit a genocide is occurring, while not letting yourself be convinced that voting is the only course of action.
Of course voting is not the only course of action. Voting is incredibly little. What, you check a box? Maybe wait a few hours at most to get into a pilling station? Dear God.
This is an incredibly limited amount of political action, particularly given the way in which box checking translates into any political action (electoral college, media monopolies, biased education, wage slavery limiting political education, campaigns built on donations from capital).
I’m saying that’s awesome but what do we do when trump gets elected because no one wants to vote now?
You actually do political work. You become educated and join an organization that does more than act as a sheepdog that turns alienatuon into genocide votes.
Trump was already president once and my political work was actually easier because liberals were outraged and could not understand the complicoty of their representatives. Their representatives merely reflect the cynical apathy of their position that is shielded when they are in power.
If Trump were an existential threat would you just be sitting around posting bad logic? You know he is just an incremental partial detriment in some ways and some vague miasma in other ways. Biden is, for example, a much more coherent genocidal Zionist, as is Harris.
Rather than quibble about how to appease one’s inner Eichmann, why not fight against it?

Hope you can look trans and queer people in the eye and tell them their genocide will be worth it in the end because you’ll stop all genocides. You know, after they’re dead and gone.

Besides the token joke that Biden isn’t a “more coherent” anything, I think Trump would be equal in this respect (not worse, but equal). He doesn’t have the same developed reasons as Biden, but America’s zionist project has deliberately allowed for zionist organizations like AIPAC to buy out politicians and send lobbyists to him, and Trump will definitely follow the directions of the overwhelming majority of his allies if they are given to him consistently. He didn’t understand imperialism well enough to understand why military spending on South Korea made sense, but they simply don’t have much sway to anyone in America except a tiny minority. Israel – because of conditions the American imperial machine created and maintains for the purpose – does have that sway
Fun fact: The United States actually has more than 2 parties
The More You Know
Oh, please tell me which third party candidate not only has a real shot at this election but is also not just a far-right grifter in disguise.
Pretty much all but the libertarian party. Turns out if enough people vote for a candidate they get elected. Weird huh?

Very long way of saying you’re looking forward to trump being in power again and forever taking away your right to vote.
Very short way of saying you will never lift a finger other than to vote even if Trump takes away your right to vote.
My comment already contradicts your response, even with its inventions. Please try to address what I say rather than making things up.

And in the end Trump wins the vote and you lose your oppurtunity to do any real politcal work! Congrats.

Time to sieze the trolley and build new tracks.
I have a plan, hear me out,
