I've noticed they will have a little tirade if you ask them what is the logical consistency that they support China despite being "against" Gaza genocide in a way that means they couldn't possibly vote for harm reduction.

[-] VictoriaAScharleau@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

voting is not a harm reduction strategy.

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

It is if you think women losing access to healthcare or Ukrainians being massacred is harm.

voting isn't a harm reduction strategy. a harm reduction strategy would be recognizing those bad things are going to happen and helping people mitigate the fallout.

Yes, by voting for the party that isn't saying we should have the National Guard brutalize protesters, that protesters should be deported, and that Israel would be justified in nuking Gaza.

[-] VictoriaAScharleau@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago

you are ignoring what harm reduction means and pretending voting fits the definition of this specific jargon. it does not, and claiming it does actually impedes the educational work that harm reductionists need to do to advance their strategies.

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Nah, none of that is correct.

[-] VictoriaAScharleau@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago

saying something doesn't make it true.

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

I know. From what I have seen of your comments. None of them were correct nor in good faith. Excepting this one, which was correct but not in good faith.
