      I am already complicit by virtue of birthplace, that doesn’t mean I have to take an active role in supporting the lesser evil.

        Then you’ve chosen to support the greater evil.

        You can hate the two party system all you want, but it’s the reality we live in.

          It is the reality we live in, and I’m not happy about it as much as the next guy. I refuse to give my support to any candidate who is saying they’ll support a genocidal regime. The rest is out of my control.

            Wrong. You are given some amount of control with your vote. You could choose to do something and are instead choosing to do nothing. You are choosing to abrogate your control.
