I mean discouraging voting for her doesn’t actually do any good unless we do a revolution or something. I recognize that not voting just threatens the rights of Americans in marginalized/vulnerable groups while doing nothing positive for Palestinians unless you count virtue signaling. Losing security in their votes doesn’t make them move leftwards. This isn’t going to change even if every leftist in the US refuses to vote blue, we’re just a tiny group in comparison to centrists. More people would be leftists if we had actually good education, but…
““Moderates”” are scum of the Earth but we didn’t build up to the Civil Rights act by sabotaging the less bad people. We would still have segregation and pretty much no women’s rights if we just stopped voting until we had candidates with modern views on sex and race in a fundamentally sexist and racist America. We don’t live in a functioning democracy, so you have to make decisions within the framework of a dysfunctional democracy. Democrats, at the very least, decrease disenfranchisement and improve access to education & healthcare (especially for underprivileged groups), so consistently voting for them guarantees we can vote for a better choice in the future. I’ve already experienced one Trump presidency, and he has far more sinister plans for the next one, so I have no reason to let him win.
Also this is unrelated, but thumb-key is great, you’re awesome for doing work on that 👍
