Disclaimer since based on my last comment i know the accusation is coming: i voted for claudia already. I think socialists should vote for Claudia if shes available.
I just also think voting is not the ultimate expression of politics and doesnt mean that much. The “its an endorsement” thing is true, but one extra endorsement does not equal one extra dead Palestinian. Thats just magical thinking. (Also, ive tried telling people the endorsement thing because its what changed my mind about lesser evilism, it doesnt work.)
And the idea that every Kamala voter is horrific evil when many are scared, propagandized, gaslit marginalized people doing what they think they need to do to not die is misguided. You guys claim to be the ultimate propaganda understanders but dont seem to understand its power. Are people still responsible for their actions? Sure. Does a vote of all things matter as an action all that much? Lmao fuck no. Its basically pointless.
Like ive actually talked to liberals about their vote. I didnt even have to touch grass to it! Where their coming from is wrong and ive told them that, but ive seen the effect the lesser evilism propaganda has on their mind. they are not coming from a place of evil with their choice Hating, “not forgiving”, or throwing in the pit (as ive seriosly seen suggested) the 10s of millions of people who will vote Kamala in November is simply not practical. You cant hate humanity to that extent and organize. And you definitly cant desire to kill that many people lmao.
Also, most of you are ex liberals. Meaning most of you have endorsed war crimes with a vote. Probably worth keeping in mind.
Yea, because we got shit to lose
People dont go out and start shooting unless they feel like theyve got nothing to lose
That’s why
has been refining the art of taking things away slowly.
Theyre very good at it
I’m not even sure this is true. I would give up all my shit in an instant if I thought it had a 0.001% chance of changing things. I think many people feel similarly.
I can never give up my wife
Well sure. But at no point in history did nobody ever have significant others. If you’re including that in your assessment then only humans who’ve lived their whole life in solitary confinement have nothing to lose.
I’m just a coward, I’m not willing to die for my beliefs cause dying is scary and maybe, maybe, if I keep my head down I can . . . nothing really. I make less than 10k a year, I don’t have a toilet or shower, I have a minifridge and induction hob and live mostly off rice and lentils and peanut butter, my ‘house’ got to 115 for weeks this summer cause metal roof and shit insulation and come winter it will stay ambient +15. I keep going because I’m too afraid to do anything else. I only leave the house for groceries and work. Sometimes I hope something good might happen.
I do have two dogs, four cats, and a long distance boyfriend who is the first personal connection I’ve had other than my mother since I was in HS. So there’s that, that’s nice.
