    - Genocide is generally regarded as the worst crime humanity has, right? - colin Jun 28, 17:17 4
      - it's a calculation that Biden seems to be actually pulling off. which just means anyone withholding their vote has even less power when he's reelected -- (link) - hollywood big shot Jun 28, 17:27 3
        
        Then they have no power now. If Biden has the same view as Trump that anybody who didn't vote for him isn't his constituent...sounds like extortion. -- nm* - colin Jun 28, 17:33 2
