Of course. I hate the system I exist in. Not voting for either fascist is saying you're ok with either one winning, and you're fine with the more fascist one winning, not somehow ascending yourself out of the system.
At the end of the day one of only two candidates will win and enact their favored policies. As I said, please for the love of God be politically active in favor of socialism the other 3 years and 364 days that exist, we need to change the system.
unsurprisingly, "yeah he's a fascist, but" is not a convincing answer. I'm voting for the PSL. I won't be holding my nose to vote for this octogenarian zionist again , fuck that lmao
I mean, that's fine. You've convinced yourself that both candidates are equally bad to placate yourself. That is so clearly not true but if you're holding on to that totem there's not a lot I can do about that.
You have rationalized yourself into voting for fascism, as if it's the only moral option. Nothing you could say would ever make me take you or your opinions seriously. You are not someone I would take advice from, nor someone whose thoughts would ever affect my own, in any form.
Good luck in November!
I figured, I hope you think on it though.
Inaction is still a vote.
You're right. We need a revolution 50 years ago.
If there was a serious revolution here you would still stay home coming up with three new excuses an hour for why it isn't your exact vintage of preferred revolution and why nothing will really change because of it.
Weird response.
You're flailing. Just read through the conversation and reflect.
Caught your loop.
We call that a thought terminating cliche.
