    Your hypothetical is false, though, the Dems and Reps have been working together to support genocide. The GOP isn’t going to go harder on it than the DNC already have been, because they can’t.

      Oh, I assure you… they can, and they will.

      It’s not a hypothetical, it’s an example. The statement was made “There is no better or worse in actively arming and participating in a genocide.” I showed that’s not true.

          The answer to a question doesn’t matter because it doesn’t fit your agenda. I get it. A statement was made, in general, not about these candidates. A moral stance. I showed the fallacy of that stance. We’re not talking about what’s happening right now, I’m talking about how that moral stance isn’t valid.

          You seem to want to make that discussion around moral stances something it isn’t and are upset that it proves a point. Can you at least admit that moral stance is invalid?

              Nope, not at all. You’re ignoring the points being made to attack me directly and make wild claims. Never have I said genocide is ok or should be defended. Never did I say what either side is doing is ok, I actually called it bad if you would read what I wrote. I’m just realistic enough to see that rigid ideals hurt more people than help.

              Can you at least admit that the moral stance of “There is no better or worse in actively arming and participating in a genocide” is invalid? Or do you think sending $10 is the same as sending $10 billion?

                  So you can’t answer the question and would rather just throw out generic insults? Lines up.

                    Again, you are debate-broing here. The point is that both the DNC and GOP are doing their best to arm Israel, and that will not change.
