Genocide is a consequence, and it will continue whoever Americans elect. Climate collapse is a consequence, and they’re both candidates are committed to more drilling. Slavery is a consequence and both are committed to out-deporting and out-incarcerating the American underclass. Whether America elects an obvious charlatan or a corporate automaton, who gives a shit? The consequences are the same, making the election entirely inconsequential.

The Lesser Evil Is Trump

By any objective measure, Trump is actually the lesser evil. Trump has not (yet) committed genocide, he sickened less people with COVID and offered more relief, he drilled less than Biden/Harris, and deported fewer passport slaves. The appeal of someone like Kamala Harris is purely subjective, she makes liberals feel superior while still participating in white supremacy. It’s not that both candidates are the same, it’s that the Democrats are objectively worse. If anything, they’re more dangerous because they’re better organized, they are the more efficient evil, and better at covering their tracks. Trump is at least an honest liar. He looks evil and he is. As Malcolm X said,
