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
You know you can do two things at once right? The purpose of harm reduction isn't to fix everything, it's to REDUCE HARM.
The other four didn't vote because there wasn't a party against genocide.
Electoral puritanism like this is a big part of why we now have concentration camps in America.
Thanks for that.
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).
The solution to the trolley problem is to kill the experimenter. He's the one that keeps strapping people to the tracks. And also to convict the one asking these questions for thought crimes.
The trolley problem is a question designed to make you think ethics is both simple and impossible, that there are no good answers, and that principles are both valid but arbitrary tools to solve complex ethical questions. If you ask me such terrorist thought experiments, off to the gulag with you!
Another day, another Pug punching left to cover for ranking democrat mistakes. Do you ever get tired or do they reward you for your allegiance? Perhaps you get left nice little scooby snacks.
"Punching left is when you advocate for harm reduction in elections in countries that haven't fallen to fascism yet."
What a bizarre notion of leftism you have.
