We keep getting evil because y'all vote for the lesser evil. Some of y'all are more focused on personal comfort rather than liberation. (lemmy.world)

It seems you are only for those rights when it appeals to your views and not when it does not agree with your way of thinking.

What on earth are you talking about

I am for those rights, which means I’m in favor of actions that will preserve and extend them, and against actions which might catastrophically destroy them

This is like someone saying if you DON’T want your family member to die of cancer why are you taking her to these DOCTORS who are making her feel even worse, and can’t make much progress, instead of to the crystal lady who promises to heal her completely and easily

Like yes, I am against the cancer as much as you are. The difference is that you are refusing to use a powerful tool that can impact the situation, and putting on this stupid cloak of virtue because you’re above it all. Well, good fuckin luck with that, I hope enough people aside from you have sense enough that the cancer doesn’t actually come for you next year.

help you look into groups like the ones I share

Which ones? I may have missed them but mostly I see you post memes, and encourage people not to vote, and criticize the Democrats. If there was a mutual aid or union drive thing in there I literally managed to miss it 100%
