Again, theres a russian agent running

What a lazy way of dismissing something that you disagree with or otherwise don't understand.

U get no change voting for anything other than the continuation of democracy in the country. You either get democracy, or u get the boot up ur ass. I choose the semblance of democracy we own. Why disparage others from this end?

This is like accusing a union that's conducting a strike of intending for the company to go bankrupt.

You're simply more afraid of loosing to Trump than you are indignant that your chosen politician is actively aiding a genocide. All Biden has to do to put both our concerns at ease is to cut off support to Israel's genocide.

You don't have to withhold your vote, but you also don't have to actively stand in the way of those of use pushing for change, either.

Have a fucking backbone.

Who's the troll in here?

You asked for a concrete way forward, and I've provided you one. Any civil rights leader in US history will tell you the same thing: no amount of liberty has ever been permitted without first being demanded, no freedom won without the risking life and limb. Find me a single instance of a civil rights leader saying we should settle for the lesser of evils and i'll fuck off.

It would be one thing if you were simply not pushing for a cessation of Israeli military support, it's another to fucking chastise those of us loudly making that demand. From where I stand, it's you who is the troll.

"Nobody is free until everybody's free" - Fannie Lou Hamer

“Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything. If you're a man, you take it.” - Malcom X

"No, no, we are not satisfied and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream" - MLK

"You deplore the demonstrations taking place in Birmingham. But your statement, I am sorry to say, fails to express a similar concern for the conditions that brought about the demonstrations" - MLK

“This struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, and it may be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.” - Frederick Douglass

If you think me to be an extremist or a troll for siding with the civil rights leaders of history, then I'll at least be content with the company.
