Another day of pretending that voters gaza concerns wouldn't be the easiest thing in the world to adress. But no not even a speaking spot at the democratic conversation. But please growel more, surely you are bound to be treated with the respect in the future.
Lol like "harm reduction" is going to save us.
Bad analogy anyway bc the effects are immediate anyway.
If we taxed everybody who didn't vote there be a lot more can you spend your money voter since there is an immediate consequence for not voting.
I'm going to engage in local organizing. I feel like that's much better and I'll be able to protect my community and my family
This is a bad analogy. Harris wasn’t fucking ice cream. A better analogy would be the trolley problem. People get killed no matter what choice you make.
But you know what? The solution to the trolley problem is to not play. I’m not to blame, the people who laid down the track, strapped down the people, and sent a train hurtling towards them are entirely responsible.
Edit: as others have commented - the real solution is to blow up the train before it hits anybody and go hunt down the sick bastard who set up the problem. (In other words - direct actions like sabotage and revolution).
Harris wasn’t fucking ice cream.
Ha. Is that supposed to be the analogy? It kind of makes sense. Libs just eating ice cream while the world falls to shit. That's literally the best that Biden could do.
not voting is a valid strategy but only when it's NOT apolitical. That's why many in power want you to either be A or B or apolitical not be neither A or B but still informed and capable.
If you want my vote then stop telling me leftists can't win. If the lesser of two evils is the best we can hope for then I'll vote for the cliff with rusted spikes at the bottom. You can attack me over that view but all that will buy you is a self righteous feeling as our bus plunges over the edge.
PS. I've reliably voted the lesser of two evils for as long as I can remember and the outcome is that it always gets worse. A slow swing towards a totalitarian society just makes people feel like everything is normal. Especially to younger people who have never seen a better life for average Americans and don't realize were sliding until its too late. Chuck Shumer isn't going to stop our slide but like the Trump BBB he may fight to change the name.
