Yes, in fact, I will be voting for the leftist candidate that most aligns with my political and social beliefs.
That is not Trump, nor is it Biden.
I know this is a little too complex for liberals like you to understand but hopefully this helps clear it up! BLUE MAGA!!!!!
Blue MAGA
Useful idiot.
More like a lame troll, from a mentally mediocre... ok, yeah, so you are correct.

Cool, so you're saying you don't give a fuck how many minorities have to die so you can feel good when you mark the box on your ballot. Great. Left praxis in the flesh.
You seem pretty content to let countless Gazans die to possibly prevent you facing oppression here.
The solution is guwtting leftists into supporting genocide, but to get the Democrats to oppose genocide.

Yep, because Trump has committed to stopping the Gazan genoci-
Wait, what's that?
Oh, he's actually said he wants MORE dead Gazans?
Huh.

It'll be great if they do. I plan on raising awareness as much as I can about the atrocities in Gaza. But if it comes down to it, and Biden is still in support of Israel come election day, I'm not dumb enough to vote for MORE genocide for EVERYONE.
Just because Trump enthusiastically supports the genocide doesn't make Biden's acceptance of it ok. Nothing will be done about it unless Democrats feel like it will help them come November. So that means holding the Democrats' feet to the fire and demanding a ceasefire. The election isn't for 6 months. There is plenty to do, but liberals on Lemmy seem only interested in saying that leftists support Trump.
See, the issue comes when "plenty to do" ends up with "justifying allowing fascism", as a glance down any of these threads will show is a common position. "If Biden doesn't change his position, he DESERVES to lose"; of course, the deaths Trump will cause is irrelevant; minorities must die to punish the old fucks in the DNC. There is an approach on a deontological level that is fucking insane from a utilitarian standpoint, and it's not something that I feel warrants standing by silently about.
On here, on Lemmy, fucking no one is in favor of Israel, except that one weirdo who got himself banned from 2/3s of the communities on here. Thank the gods. "Genocide bad" is already accepted; what is sometimes missed is "A Trump election implies a significant increase in genocide", which is why I beat the drum on here. I've seen leftists on here (by no means representative of all leftists, not even all Lemmy leftists, I know) say things as repulsive, nonsensical, and varied as:
-
America deserves genocide anyway for supporting genocide, so it's okay if Trump wins
-
Trump winning will spark a left-wing revolution, so everything will be better in the end
-
Trump actually isn't any different than Biden, and won't kill any significantly greater number of people
-
A personal moral stand is worth the lives of millions of minorities and leftists
-
As long as the moderates are taught a lesson, it's worth it
As long as I see those opinions regularly pop up outside of .ml and like instances, I will continue beating the "Vote for Biden you dumb fucks" drum over the "Genocide is BAD you dumb fucks" drum that I would favor when interacting with the general American population.

Nothing any of us do in the upcoming election will stop that. Voting Trump will get Gazans killed, voting Biden will get Gazans killed, and voting 3rd party will get Gazans killed.
And it's hardly just a possibility of oppression here. Trump has vowed to do everything in his power to stop gender affirming care from being available. It's going to end up with dead trans people, including children. That's not just a possibility, that's practically a guarantee.
But Trump isn't going to stop with that, because he and his buddies have made it clear that they want to tear down what little democracy we have, and kill/jail his political opponents. That means you. He isn't paraphrasing Hitler for nothing.
Morons gonna moron
