drives me kinda nuts that chuds will accept kalshi/polymarket without acknowledging risks like this, when 4 or so years ago those same all bought into the rumors that wildfires were being intentionally started by "antifa operatives"

They’re fascists who like trump. Anything antifascists do is bad to them, and anything trump does is good. That’s all there is to it

Libs: "Don't worry guysssss we just gotta vote in a few weeks, that'll solve everything!! vOtEeeE"

Voting will be part of it. To dismiss voting now is dumb as well but it's not the magic bullet.

Bullets aren't magic they're very real.

Voting only does anything where there is a militant movement scaring the capitalists into even allowing any reform because the alternative is dragging them into the streets. The civil rights act only worked because of the Black Panthers and a surge in direct action following the assassination of MLK.

So no it really doesn't. No such organization exists in the imperial core so until one materializes your vote means little to nothing.

Ya I agree. As I said there is no magic bullet. Bullets are real.

Everything. I have no idea why my phone auto corrected it. I don't even play games anymore.
