claim 1: “voting doesn’t change anything”Never forget the recent case of Kris Mayes, who refuses to uphold the Arizona supreme court’s sweeping ban of abortion.

Kris Mayes only won her 2022 election by 280 votes. Voting changes things.

claim 2: “but genocide joe”Yep. Hold that fucker’s feet to the fire. He has blood on his hands

But trump has promised to be indisputably worse.

I won’t tell you how to vote. I just encourage you to vote. You’re not radical for ditching the only miniscule right the state has granted you to do some small aid for your neighbors.

Sounds like you're suffering a serious case of "First Past The Post voting".

I'm surprised you've let this condition go untreated for so long.

It even says on the documentation that if your condition lasts more than a generation, consultant a revolutionary.

Um, his comment is about how other people reacted to their choice of a third party.

yeah this user has a habit of typing out the same (valid) talking points, even copy pasting sometimes, in response to comments without actually engaging with the other user. like i agree with their takes but they have a bad tendency to shove them where they don’t belong and take no questions after.

i would block them but it’s kind of entertaining to see lol
