You are why America is what it is today.
STOP VOTING FOR EVIL.
Biden is 100% theocrat. He has a history of being against gay marriage and against abortion because he is Catholic. He is against cannabis legalization because of the religious circles he runs in.
Biden is 100% a fascist. He is making back room deals to try to secure the ability to unilaterally siphon money into a genocide behind closed doors.
We keep voting for the lesser evil, which is still evil, and as such, it keeps getting worse.
When the game is rigged, you flip the board.
They are going to do what they are going to do either way. Make them do it with without public support. Make them do it with a 10% voter turn out. Make them feel the shame.
The entire world seems to be striking, and one by one, those who are on strike are winning over those who thought they were the owners.
Put America on strike. Don't vote until there is someone worth voting for. Don't vote until we have universal healthcare. Don't vote until we have higher education for all. Don't vote until everyone sleeps under a roof after a meal.
Can you explain why you expect low turnout to do anything but hand control of the government to people who demonstrably feel no shame? Because one party keeps trying to lower turnout, saying turnout is bad, and generally trying to remove the ability to vote and for votes to matter, and it's not the one Biden is the point guy for. The people reading Donald Trump: The Man, The Christ, are going to show up, so your argument is, "people who would vote against that shouldn't show up and should cede power to the evangelicals who do".
You can set up for the rebellion and vote. It's not one or the other. Coalition build, do direct action, set up for a general strike... And take 30 minutes out of that to vote for someone who'll make it easier to do praxis, coalition building, etc. (not easy, but easier)
You keep posting unhinged shit like this. I trust that sane people have the good sense and will ignore your rants.
The downvotes help this post be ignored.
You are voting for a genocide, and I am the unhinged one.
That's rich.
OK, you do this, get back to me when it accomplishes something.
Sure thing. Likewise, get back to me when your mental gymnastics finally fully sink America.
Bailing water while the hole gets bigger isn't accomplishing anything. It's wasting time and effort on the wrong thing to ensure the boat sinks.
Not voting is simply an absolute capitulation. The voting system reform thing is already starting, labor organization is growing faster than it has in decades, state constitutions across the US are being changed for the progressive, even in red states like Ohio.
What has not voting accomplished?
This literally isn't true. You're supposed to bail water until the hole is fixed. You can't just do one or the other, you have to do both in tandem.
