The discourse on American politics sometimes devolves to "Leftists who won't vote" & "MAGA Republicans" teaming up to "getting revenge on liberals".

what are you going to be doing to help Palestinian people?

same thing i do now. agitate, educate, organize.

Great, and what are you going to say to all of the LGBT folk who get legislated out of existence because of your failure to protect them?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I do what I can to protect vulnerable people. I don't believe voting accomplishes that.

Voting third party is no vote at all. Therefore you are refusing to combat Trump, and so are complicit in his victory if it happens.

You are just as much to blame as the Reps if he wins.

no. everyone is only responsible for their own actions. I'll be voting against trump

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Then vote Biden, or you’re not voting at all. Third party means nothing.

this is election misinformation. my vote must be counted like anybody else.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

any vote that is not for trump is a vote against trump

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (2 children)

False. If you do not vote Biden, you are throwing away a vote against Trump. Voting third party is no vote at all.

What specifically does any of that mean?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

i don't talk about my personal organizing here. go find an org and help out.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Are you accusing me of being uncharitable towards others because I asked you to clarify what you meant?

Uhm, OK.

Are you accusing me of being uncharitable towards others

no. i'm telling you that's the best way to find out what i do.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Can you please just do 1 response to 1 statement? This comment chain is going to grow exponentially if I respond to each thing that could have really just been 1 message to prevent repeating.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

i don't like walls of text. if you don't want to talk to me, please don't

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Okay!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

How can I find out what you do if you refuse to tell me what organization I should go to?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

you will have better luck blindly joining leftist orgs than asking me for more details here.
