that's nice if you actually burn anything. if you just don't vote then you're just going to get stomped by fascists. either you actually commit to that level of action or you get rolled by those that do.
that's just an empty welcome to the fascists of it's not backed by meaningful planned action. the only way what you said will work is of you're ready to fucking go the second trump wins. he's not leaving otherwise. so either you're in a militia or you're pathetic and part of the problem.
amen. that's why the left is so bad, politically, and the right is, well better. they whine but keep voting. the leftists just whine and do nothing and get mad that the guy they didn't vote for didn't win.
Literally every grievance they have can be answered with "well then why didn't you vote in <X primary/off year election> where a candidate who would have answered that grievance if not built momentum towards one who would was running?"
If they spent a percent of the energy voting that they did whining about why they don't want to, Bernie would have won the 2016 primary handily, along with a slate of progressive challengers at his back.
