Seriously I’m so confused on this. The USA has a 2 party system. You either vote for Biden or you get Trump. Abstaining from the vote you get Trump. MAGA will have a 100% turnout for their God Emperor.

Trump supports Israel 100%. Again, by not voting for Biden the reality is you’re voting for Trump who is even more supportive of Israel and will also attempt to upend democracy in the west.

You don’t have any options here that support Palestine. The reality of the situation is you either get Biden or Trump and the latter is infinitely worse for the ideal you’re trying to uphold by abstaining. That’s how politics work in the US. You might not like it, it sucks, but unfortunately that’s just the way things work.

          You’re presenting a false dichotomy. I’m saying voting between capitalist candidates in bourgeois elections is a nearly politically inert action. It could be worse than meaningless, in giving well-meaning people a feeling that they’ve contributed to positive change when they haven’t. Joining socialist organizations, organizing your workplace, socialist activism, those are actions that contribute directly to solving the biggest problem today. Why would a communist vote for an explicitly anti-communist politician? If you had to pick between a Republican and a fascist, which would you vote for?

              I don’t know who you’re talking about being anti-fascist. What if the enemy of my enemy is my enemy? What if you had to vote between two right-wingers? That’s the choice we’re talking about.
