Fuck a president that enables genocide and funds it. Saying "oh don't be a single issue voter!" when the issue is "stop mass killings of people with a single phone call" is so out of this world, it's just insane. Time for a third party, plain and simple. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] agitatedpotato@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago If literal genocide cannot convince liberals to consider third parties, then I'm convinced they will never support third parties.
