Refusing to participate in anything and just letting bad things happen means you don't actually hold any values.
What are you saying? That First Past The Post voting disenfranchises a huge portion of the electorate by artificially limiting the number of viable political parties?
The "totally supports democracy" democrats are probably all over correcting this issue in the states they control right?
Yup, FPTP is garbage, and the US is a dumpster fire third world country with a Gucci handbag.
And yet, doing nothing can result in things getting even worse, so someone shouldn't pretend to have some sort of moral superiority over doing nothing from stopping napalm being thrown on the fire because "it's already burning anyway."
So you support Genocide. Good to know, now just be honest with yourself.
"sitting around doing nothing does not make you morally superior"
"So you support genocide"
Well you sure sound like a rational person with reasonable arguments worth listening to...
Who said anything about doing nothing? There is a large amount you can do beside supporting genocide "because the world is complex", and doing nothing. One of those things is not voting for the parties that support genocide as a bare minimum.
"There's lots of things you can do, one of those things is nothing."
