Yep. Support genocide or quit seems like an easy question to answer.
This feels like a rather privileged take. While it is morally correct to do so, adults typically don't live their lives doing morally correct things all the time. As an example, I think not paying taxes to the US government is also morally correct since taxpayer money goes to support Ukraine and Israel, among other things. When are all US-based hexbear users quitting their jobs?
the US government has a sovereign currency, you not paying taxes doesn't take money out of their coffers it just causes you problems.
not that it matters but i'm too poor to pay federal taxes
I've never been to the US lol
Part of my family lives in Russia and there have been many moral quandaries with respect to continuing to live there and working in an economy increasingly oriented towards producing murder. Some chose to stay, some left; I don't think any choice is for me to judge from a position of superiority.
