I dont think you're saying anything at all honestly. Ive been fighting the right and the slightly less right for decades. From occupy to agorism, protests, illegal community support, tenant associations, volunteer work, food banks, so its pretty hasty for you to claim I have no vision while you speak on Jack shit but milquetoast half assed DNC apologism about how the openly fascist are 50 years ahead and you dont even know what to fight for but you're convinced incremental change is the way.
Well, there it is. The reason nothing has gotten done is because you're the one "fighting the right." After 20 years ready to throw in the towel because you can't bear to check a box ever again.
Lol I dont think you understand a damn thing Ive said but thanks for whining at me, I guess.
You checked out after my first response. Go ahead read it again.
Edit:
Because all or nothing is really doing it for you. I mean... it is doing nothing so I guess you got that part down pat.
Maybe its just more impressive from your perspective, where everything would eventually be perfect if people just checked the same box you do.
It's not about what box I check. It's about the box which actually contributes to change.
Thats why im probably going to check the Claudia De LA Cruz box but im still not sure tbh. Maybe if more people vote their conscience the DNC will try and earn my vote or run a candidate I believe in and have a fair chance to select, but so far I dont think these boxes change a damn thing.
The guy in office even told me nothing will fundamentally change when he took over from trump and he was right, so im not going to place too much importance on the boxes and start focusing on things I believe in. Like food not bombs, peoples city council, and my local tenant Union.
Oblivious. The stakes this election are beyond. You have a supreme court that is funneling power to the executive and the GOP is openly advertising their plan for christo-fascism. Why I even bother, if it hasn't gotten through to you by now you'll remain oblivious.
Pure cope
