I mourn every single person of colour’s, queer person’s, disabled person’s, and otherwise marginalized person’s life the non voters chose to sacrifice for their lofty ideal of revolution, or whatever else their reasoning was.
Keeping fascists out of office, by any means necessary…means voting for their strongest opponent, every time there’s an opportunity…in addition to every other means at our disposal. Not voting against them, gives them power in a vacuum.
Unfortunately voting for Democrats isn’t harm reduction. It’s just a vote against harm acceleration. Which has a value don’t get me wrong. But it’s not the same thing. The only way we’ll ever see harm reduction. Is if we primary every candidate from every party. Actually making them compete and not just continuing to legislate based on momentum. As well as voting in every tiny local election. Focusing on them and empowering your local politicians and party. To take away from the national party’s power.
You had 3 choices with 2 outcomes. If you want to accelerate a western collapse without a working commune to fill the power vacuum or have no post game plan, you’re an asshole.
Voting for the lesser evil is harm reduction in the same way that giving a fentanyl addict morphine is harm reduction. You cannot vote your way out of fascism.
But you can vote to prevent them from taking power in the first place.
Two-party voters couldn’t stop them either.
Got pretty close. Closer than 3rd party voters for sure, non-voters aren’t even on the scoreboard.
Also I’m not sure you understand the meme template.
pretty close. a failure.
not a great reason to blame other voters for failing.
Again, do you know how this meme template works?
not that you asked a first time, but yes, I understand your flawed meme.
what do you need explained?
I didn’t ask the first time, it was a invitation that you did not engage with. Your response implies that no, you do not.
The template comes from the movie “I, Robot” where Will Smith asks the robot if he can compose a symphony, to which the robot asks “Can you?”. The robot is not saying that he can compose a symphony, just that Will Smith also can’t. Your response implies that you do not understand this exchange.
I can provide further explanation if you need it.
I responded that I do understand your flawed meme, although from your comments, I’m not surprised you got confused by direct language.
you need help. ask for it
The response “Two-party voters couldn’t stop them either.” is evidence that no, you do not.
