Now the question is which is easier, convincing millions of people to vote for “anyone not a republican” or convincing a candidate to be more than “not republican”
If you are form the US, you are having your primaries by now.
Those are the ones where good people appear and need your vote to stay on the race. Go participate there, instead of complaining about the main election.
This is the correct answer.
The people who support the “both sides bad” argument and the “protest non-voters” are children who still need their parents to order their tendies for them at Chili’s.
- Get involved.
- Understand the actual candidates.
- Vote in the primaries.
The general election should be the last step in executing your civic duties and by that time you should be voting for your team.
the primaries are rigged, did you learn nothing from bernie in iowa?
This is lib bullshit. Voting is how you keep the Epstein class in power.
Prove me wrong and nominate an anti-genocide candidate.
Voting for the Epstein class is how you keep the Epstein class in power.
Vote for something else.
Voting system does not let you? Then you’re not done democracying yet.
A no-vote is a vote for any tyrant will do. Spoiling your ballot paper is a protest vote.
Voting system doesn’t let you? Then you’re not done democracying yet! Democracyify harder! ;D
“A no-vote is a vote for any tyrant will do.”
why would you lie about something so obviously false?
Why do you presume that’s so obviously false?
It seems like you’re not getting what it’s alluding to. Or worse, intentionally muddying the waters and poisoning the well, as well as doing an ad-hominem smear on my character asserting it’s a lie.
Why do you think that’s a lie?
Is it not immediately evident to you what that’s getting at? In how a no vote is silent in the vote-count, and lends more weight to the turnout, in whichever tyrant they vote for? Isn’t its poetic expression evoking in your mind how a no-vote is a way of saying your voice matters less, so little in fact, that any tyrant will do?
Does it not become clear to you the distinction between a spoiled ballot in protest and a no-vote having no weight of protest?
Do you think if the majority do not vote, their no-votes are counted, and then there’s no government? Because that’s obviously false, right? Isn’t that the majority of times? Certainly of the population, if not just the electorate. They count the votes of the turnout. Don’t vote, don’t become part of the turnout, then your vote, your voice at the ballot box, is as mute as saying any tyrant will do.
Pray tell, how is this seen otherwise to you? Where do you perceive a lie? Where do you see the falsehood that you consider so obvious in this?
i don’t care for your interrogative style. say what you want to say.
They’ll try to shove you off the platform with constant negativity and trying to act like Trump is just a continuation of all the same. If you didn’t care before, why do you care now?
It’s not. It’s different.
Both parties have the identical end goal in mind. One is just slower at it.
So for fucks sake pick the one that’s slower at it so you have more time to do something about it. It’s not like voting locks you out of any other actions.
Or, vote for something other than going to the bad place?
Someone offers you two pills, you don’t have to take either. You can make your own, and seek other options.
