Didn't say they did. People die none the less. If that's acceptable that's fine, but call it what it is: An acceptable loss.
it is immoral to flip the switch and murder someone. that doesn't make the situation acceptable
I don't disagree, it doesn't change that you need to own the bodies as an acceptable loss.
no, you don't need to accept it.
doesn't make much difference to the bodies
except that you're not locked in a booth, so there actually are things you can do besides pull a lever.
I'm done with this, but no, there was not. I respect and acknowledge anyone choosing a protest, I really do. I'm a registered libertarian for gods sakes. There we two choices, one was going to win, the other wasn't. If the reason someone allowed people to die was because less people would die in the future so be it, when it came down to it, that was the only choice on the table. Would have loved if it was different, but it wasn't. You don't get to avoid the splatter.
there are still things you can do to save the people endangered by both your vote and the people who voted for the other candidate
Endangered by my vote? I don't like the splatter I'm getting. In fact I hate it, but I do own it. I tried to get less of it to wipe off.
I thought you were done
think of all the people who Kamala would have imprisoned, deported, or shipped the bombs to kill. go do something to save them.
