    So, your ethical/moral framework is optional. Only comes into play if there are no consequences or fallout from you doing the right thing. Got it.

      Voting for someone who says “I will arm a genocide” means you’ve voluntarily helped that person to do that.

      I don’t think paying taxes under duress to a government that arms a genocide is comparable.

      Do I understand you as saying “you could go to jail rather than pay taxes, therefore you’re a hypocrite for not voting for someone who says ‘I will arm a genocide’?”
