Ok dude while yes voting for the lesser evil is not the best option it's still better than just letting the evil evil win. Until there is another candidate that has a real chance of winning that is not a Democrat or a Republican then voting for the lesser evil is our best shot. We may not have another election because Trump is in power or at the bear minimum these next 3 and a bit years are going to fucking suck the first year already has.
No, the best shot for positive change is abandoning electoralism and organizing directly. That's the point of the meme.
So you just say fuck it for the time being and just watch people's family's be ripped apart because you didn't vote for the lesser evil? (For this administration I know it wasn't because of people not voting trump was just way more popular than Harris)
It's absolutely incredible how stunted people are in their political thinking that they're unable to imagine any meaningful political action aside from pulling a lever every 4 years. The west is so cooked.
I can imagine more meaningful political action than pulling a lever every 4 years but you can both pull the lever and do the political action it doesn't have to be one or the other
If y'all actually did meaningful political action then you wouldn't be living under a fascist regime today lmfao
Where do you live that it's not going to shit? There pretty much isn't anywhere that isn't trying to turn into a hell scape currently
I live in a shithole western country too. The fact that my country is going to shit doesn't preclude me from understanding why. It's precisely because a bunch of mouth breathers here think they can vote their way out of a dictatorship of capital. Meanwhile, if you want to see a country that's not going to shit just go look at China or Vietnam.
