Nobody has offered a progressive choice iyn that level. Progressives speak to the working class as do populists, there are Bernie bros who joined the Trump train.

I'm really unsure of what your goal here is. Conscription is terrible and shouldn't be needed, we all agree on that. It's incredibly common at least for defense. I am genuinely curious about how many societies don't have it in one form or another.

Are you an American male between 18 and 25? If so enjoy your forced military service. Failure to sign up for the selective service is punishible by a $250000 fine or 5 years in prison. It's also a requirement for student aid or federal employment. Democracies have conscription too

It's really not that interesting. I was hoping for saliva to be flying, but that just his tone all the time. He always sounds like the least interesting Housewife, hoping that being bitchy enough will keep her on the next season.

I'm not a centrist, I've never said I liked Joe Biden or that he bears no blame for the situation we're in. When given the choice between, in your words, genocide or genocide light. I'm going to pick the option that is less genocidy, and then fight against that. A belief that there is a third mysterious option here, that is going to magically fix everything (like you imagined the Trump administration was at the start of this conversation) is reckless idiocy. People are dying, people will continue to die, if you're holier than thou bullshit let you sleep at night I guess that's fine. I'm forced to live in the real world and make adult decisions. I want the trolley to kill the fewest number of innocent people and don't have time for stupid games.

Anyone who voted for Trump or Nobody because of the Democratic party's stance on the ongoing genocide in Gaza made what can only be called an idiotic choice. It was clear what Trump would do and it was Genocide++. Your ballot didn't send a message to the democratic party, so it was an act of autoerotic solipsism.

As long as the protest is symbolic bullshit that's makes you feel better, nothing will fundamentally change. If this matters to you find an active way to solve the problem. Posting away on the Internet while waiting for America to dissolve into individual states is still not going to do shit. Fix the Democratic party instead of giggling at it while Republicans fuck us all
