The only way we win this game is by not playing it.

I'll remember that when I'm in RFK's camps for concetration, thanks for preferring your 'dignity' over the genocide of minorities. /s

The Nazis thank you for being one of their useful idiots.

Don't worry. We all have to resist in the way we understand best.

OP seems to think fascist racists actually care about laws and will respect the outcomes of our voting which is his right. Its just unfortunate he cant see that people fighting the system in other ways may actually be useful too.

Just not enough to oppose it.

I always have opposed it, and always will. It’s not my fault we only have the illusion of a choice. I am not your enemy. I’m your peer who is going through this with you. Rather than argue with each other we should be figuring out how we can come together and stop this while we still can. “Vote blue no matter who” is not necessarily the answer. If it was, it would’ve worked by now.

Remember 2021 when Democrats controlled congress and the White House and tried to pass a massive reconciliation bill that STILL got watered down because of establishment Democrat holdouts whose fossil fuel industry donators would make less money if it passed?

What about when the Senate decided that because a unelected parliamentarian said so, they couldn’t give undocumented immigrants (including dreamers) legal status?:

These were all issues Democrats ran on and were elected to solve, and even with all the power to do so they somehow couldn’t get it across the finish line. This is a pattern for establishment democrats. Do just enough to make it look like they’re on your side without really doing anything to upset the status quo. Then they have the audacity to convince you and so many others that if we don’t keep them in power we are somehow the ones morally at fault?

FUCK THAT.

They have wasted every chance they got and shown that they would rather lose an election than learn lessons of the past failure and put out a popular message. As soon as the Supreme Court decided last year that Presidents were kings, Biden should have used that power to push through the rest of his agenda. Trump as a 34x convicted felon shouldn’t even be eligible to be President, but the DOJ did nothing to uphold this basic constitutional requirement and instead just let him back in.

If that weren’t enough, he even mentioned getting Elon to rig the election for him, ON ELECTION NIGHT. Why wasn’t that immediately investigated? Instead we just got reassurance that the election is highly secure. Maybe it wasn’t rigged, maybe it is secure, but why even leave it up to chance?

Trust me, I oppose EVERYTHING wrong with the current administration. But I’m also no longer going to be told how to vote by a party that fails every single time they get the chance to do the right thing.
