More like lots of having to refute dumb arguments that imply choosing harm reduction is the same thing as endorsing harm.

"harm reduction" in the context of genocide is absolutely wild. It's a genocide, not a heroin habit

I want no genocide. My choices are: vote for a candidate that would make the genocide worse, while complaining they're supporting a genocide, or vote for a candidate that would more or less do nothing about it, while complaining they're ineffectual at stopping the genocide.

How can you not see one of those two options is better?
