    HOW DID NOT VOTING WORK IN 2016 AND 2024??

    Fuck off with this bullshit. Voting isn’t enough, but it is the minimum and you’re a fucking moron if you think not voting is a choice that won’t hurt you in the long run.

    Advocate for local mutual aid and work from the bottom to improve things, of course. But if you sit out voting because it won’t help, you’re already not helping so shut the fuck up

    voting just shows ppl care about the state of world. Its difficult to fix the world if 30% of the ppl are right wing cultist, 30% dont care, and 10% think the options not good enough to slow down the right wing momentum.

    I agree political Parties like dems are not the best solution. However, voting for them or third parties is important to slowing the momentum right. we need that so we can start pushing the momentum left.

      I mean if anything besides communism counts as “Fascism” to you, you are probably right. I am not quite sure if your authoritarian alternative sounds better to me than democracy though.
