    You can have genocide or genocide with racism. Take your pick.

      Not just racism. Full on authoritarian, domestic genocide type racism. Not to mention the number of deaths from how much worse climate change will be once the US is under the control of a right wing dictatorship that is actively against doing anything about it.

      Genocide is genocide.

      I would rather vote for third parties that are anti-genocide.

      We must have higher standards than the status quo.

      With that kind of thinking, the civil rights movements would never have happened.

        I would rather vote for third parties that are anti-genocide.

        Name any three candidates on ballots in enough states to win the presidency.

        I’ll give you the first two for free, so you just need to name any other option:

        1. Harris
        2. trump
        3. ?

    Critical difference:

    Trump actively advocates racism:

    Harris does not advocate genocide, she advocates an immediate cease fire and a two-state solution:

      True, that is why we should continue to be involed in our local community and supporting organizations that help workers.

      An example of one such organization that is fighting and demanding higher standards for workers:

      WE DEMAND

      1. Workers Need a Real Raise — $25/Hour Minimum Wage
      2. Good Union Jobs for All
      3. Fight Racism, Sexism & All Oppression
      4. Quality Affordable Housing & Free Healthcare for All
      5. End the Genocidal War on Gaza — No Military Aid, No Occupation
      6. No More Sellouts — We Need a New Party[1]
