      You’ve been voting for the lesser Nazi for a hundred years now and things have only gotten worse.

          I can only speak for the countries I know anything about, but things steadily get worse elsewhere too. Yeah it’s hard to drop to USA-levels, but look at your own country objectively. Are the big things like work hours, purchasing power, access to similar resources as the rich, work safety, etc, getting better where you are?

          And when you find an example of a specific thing, which of course happens; What motivated those gains? For where I live, it’ll typically directly follow a big protest and suddenly all the parties getting their act together for a week, or it’ll be the one thing the socialists in parliament managed that year.

          Well, Harris was the one that chose this. She had the easiest election I’ve ever seen, and she gave it all up to keep supporting a Genocide.

          And you immediately turn around and say that we should support her, and her party?

          No thanks.

          Considering that AIPAC has become radioactive, war with Iran is unpopular and people like you have to at least pretend like they give a fuck about genocide, ICE, queer people, the environment and all the other stuff, yeah, seems like it actually is a better strategy to make demands of politicians instead of unconditionally voting.

          And you people always do this weird thing where you make the democratic party out to be much better than it is. So weird. Who are you trying to lie to? Me, or yourself?

          THIS was the actual democratic party candidate

              Pathetic, but that is what I expected of you. No one can believe what you believe and also be a person who is informed about the world around them.

      Huzzah! Let’s fold our arms and pout which let’s the authoritarians who want a monarchy back win.

        Did this comment look good in your head?

        The truth is that reform has never freed an oppressed people in the history of womankind. Your imperialist bias is gross.

          And how? I’m honestly curious. I’m not saying voting is perfect, but at least it’s better than doing nothing and letting the worse evil win.

            Don’t you have laws against tyranny literally baked into your constitution? Pretty sure you guys could get 2 or 3 guns each and make the government whatever the fuck you wanted, but your treats are still pacifying the populace.
