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.
I genuinely hate this shit, because its so nakedly dishonest.
We played the game back in 2000 with Ralph Nader and "I don't care who you vote for, so long as you vote" collapsed into "Ralph Nader helped George Bush Jr steal the election" minutes after the polls closed in Florida. Then we played it again in 2016, when Jill Stein was accused of being a Putin shill. The Republicans played it in 1992 when (not entirely unfairly, Perot reviled Bush Sr for taking a foreign policy position of reconciliation towards Vietnam) Ross was blamed for George's abysmal poll numbers following Desert Storm.
Anyone who says this, while expressing any serious degree of interest in the outcome of the election, is simply lying.
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
Hm nice to have some context I guess lol
