Then go do something, man.
Sitting around and doing a "noble" nothing is not standing up or doing more. It's doing EVEN LESS than voting. There is an absolutely real possibility that if everybody stays home it doesn't shift D left, it just results in nothing besides Republican control.
In that case though you wouldn't have to worry about voting for palestinian genocide, because it would be over and done with. You could be not voting for climate denial or not voting for something else, posting on Lemmy about how righteous you are, and bottling your own farts to sniff later.
I'm walking, stumping, and repping local elections and voting as far left as I can everywhere else. There is no far far left activity/activism you're touting anywhere to be seen. What value do you add?
wanna know what it might have looked like if millions of people that couldn't stomach voting Democrat did so?
every single election in my adult life.
when genocide is in the overton window all you can do is brace for impact.
USA is collapsing, and best we can do now is hope for a better future in its ashes. Delaying it for 20 years by letting the Democrats get away with more and more and more wasn't gonna change that.
Buddy, look at who are the other major players right now. Russia, China, and the EU. If you think for for a hot second that whatever rises out of this fire is going to be better, have I got news for you.
That is the objective for these types of people. A world where the EU and USA are isolated and China, Russia, Iran, etc. have free reign in 'their' backyards.
