    No, the best shot for positive change is abandoning electoralism and organizing directly. That’s the point of the meme.

      So you just say fuck it for the time being and just watch people’s family’s be ripped apart because you didn’t vote for the lesser evil? (For this administration I know it wasn’t because of people not voting trump was just way more popular than Harris)

        You know the lesser evil is also ripping families apart right? What part of organize directly did you not understand? You don’t have to just watch.

        It’s absolutely incredible how stunted people are in their political thinking that they’re unable to imagine any meaningful political action aside from pulling a lever every 4 years. The west is so cooked.

          I can imagine more meaningful political action than pulling a lever every 4 years but you can both pull the lever and do the political action it doesn’t have to be one or the other

              Where do you live that it’s not going to shit? There pretty much isn’t anywhere that isn’t trying to turn into a hell scape currently

                I live in a shithole western country too. The fact that my country is going to shit doesn’t preclude me from understanding why. Meanwhile, if you want to see a country that’s not going to shit just go look at China or Vietnam.
