The point is to change the system, not enable it by continuing down the same road we've been on for 50+ years that has led us to this point.

Consider a Palestinian facing constant threat of extinction paid for and produced by the US. The problem is not which right wing party is in charge when the bombs drop, but the decades long imperialism that has been wholistically supported by both dems and repubs. They're two sides of the same coin, both hoping the people won't realize that the whole system is designed to prevent any real change.

Also, your assertion that "genocide light" is acceptable violates rules 2 and 5, and I'm removing your comment because we do not allow support for genocidal entities in this community.

Discouraging leftist voters supports the Republican party, which is a genocidal entity. Please delete this post as it violates the rules.
