Hell of an antifascist coalition that throws its weight behind a party and candidate funding and arming and denying a genocide.

In this shit universe you have to be pragmatic sometimes and pick the less fascist person to prevent even worse fascism. Nobody like it, but here we are.

Okay. When do you have to be pragmatic and draw a red line? Where is that red line?

[–] Count042@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 months ago

That red line exists in the same space as the red line that Biden has for Israel.

There is no red line. Things change. Society and humanity isn't static . what was acceptable in the past isn't anymore and what is acceptable now was not in the past. I am not an absolutist.

You do what you think will functionally lead to the best possible outcome now.

Is that a roundabout way of saying that the genocide is acceptable to you now?

I’ve never seen someone claim moral relativism for that reason!

Okay, now then would you say that genocide is your red line?
