    If the Democrats were supporting a Genocide by the KKK in Detroid would that prevent you from voting for them?

        They’re trying to argue that we give less weight to tragedies that happen elsewhere as opposed to in your own backyard.

        BUT federal government has less international power than they do in their own country (obviously) so it’s an argument in bad faith. This is assuming that “Detroid” is meant to be Detroit and not a fictional planet great value Metroid.

        I’m just wondering where the line is. I really thought everyone claiming to have morals would draw it at Genocide but apparently I’m the minority.
