(Ideally)Right now, we have time to primary the old guard out, but if it came down to voting for an asshole and voting for a Nazi, I’ll vote for the asshole, because abstaining in protest will only help the Nazi get in.
you shared a meme that says democrats don’t allow the american overton window to move left and your previous comment suggests that voting democrat moves the same overton window to the left; there seems to be a conflict in the point you’re trying to make.
There is a time and place for when to do activism voting and when the the stakes are too high, you have to set aside your pride. If voters could keep the republicans out, we could start replacing the democrats with real progressives. Right not, democrats represent the lesser of two evils and when the greater evil wants to create concentration camps, it’s immoral not to vote for the lesser.
that lesser evil is doing nothing to prevent concentration camps and democrats are working to ensure that progressives are shut out. giving the democrats your support is not only not achieving these goals, it’s actively working against them; so a different strategy is needed.
Giving the democrats support right before the election was the only thing we could do. Right now, we have time to regroup and get new blood elected. We can do activism voting right now, but if you didn’t vote for Harris just to keep Trump out, you need to confront the fact that what were seeing right now is partially your fault.
The asshole is the servant of the Nazi. You only get the Nazi a bit later and all the more stronger. They are both parts of the same Oligarchy that ultimately wants the Nazi in power.
Yes and? I’ve shared this exact meme.

what we’re seeing right now is an imperialism boomerang and you’re significantly more complicit if you continue to give your support to either party.
I’m giving my support to the people who are challenging the status quo, not to people promoting inaction. Your plan only strengthens the imperialists.
