    And yet, this very article we’re commenting on is about war crimes getting worse.

    Almost like when your options are “bad” or “worse” you shouldn’t vote for “worse.”

      That sounds like some extortion. Not exactly something I would want to champion or believe to be a viable political platform

        That… is nothing the fuck like extortion.

        “Vote for me or I’ll release these pictures of you fucking your dog” is extortion.

        “Vote for me because my opponent will make this issue you claim to care about worse” is not.

        Life gives us hard choices. Whining that they don’t perfectly suit your pristine moral absolutism doesn’t change that.

          That reads like exactly how republicans describe democrats. Can you not see how far to the right you have strayed?
