I would hope that we're all on the side of "stop the endless pointless suffering" but apparently a lot of the people in this thread are very pro-rich and pro-authoritarian that they want to abstain from voting for DNC frontrunners if they win the primaries.
The saddest thing about this is I think you're serious. I think you really think these people that have aligned themselves as the servants of the ultra wealthy have your interests at heart. That these people that believe in late stage capitalism are going to protect you from fascism. And that's just crushingly depressing. Because somewhere in your mind you think capitalism and fascism are opposing ideologies. Whereas in reality one's just the result of the other.
You are like the oysters walking along happily with the walrus and the carpenter.
How incredibly foolish that you've seen people draw water from the well for you but still insist the well is dry.
No buddy, neoliberals only draw water for their ultra wealthy friends. All while telling us that the water is gone. That's why they've been dismantling all the public wells for the last 40 years. Open up your eyes and notice.
