Classic bad take

You can vote and protest, they're not mutually exclusive

Stop trying to divide the left

Who said they were mutually exclusive?

[-] Sc00ter@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago

Exactly. Theyre not mutually exclusive. There is a lnown issue with working class people not being able to take time off on tuesdays to go vote. If elections were saturdays, maybe there would be a better turn out.

I feel like this argument doesnt hold as much water as it used to with how easy it is to vote by mail or use early voting. At least in the 3 locations ive been for the last presidential election
