The other four didn't vote because there wasn't a party against genocide.

And those four are functionally equivalent to people who didn't vote because they're okay with either option

Genocide is much more like driving off a cliff than having ice cream or not voting.

It's kind of sad that I even have to say this.

I mean if we want a better analogy, Harris represented the "crash the bus into a building" party, and Trump represented the "crash the bus into a building and explode" party. 3 people are voting for building, 4 people are voting for building and explode, and 4 people are saying "I don't care whether we explode."

One of those 4 thinks they're making some kind of statement by saying "I don't want to crash at all, so I won't be voting." He is indistinguishable from the 3 that just don't care
