"Erm akshually you have to vote for genocide"

How about you vote for your favorite brick in this here wall, Good German. how-compelling

Reader, I address you because this person is a lost cause. If your government and media apparatus tries to compel you to go along with a genocide, and explicitly tells you you have no choice, you have a moral and practical duty as a member of the human race to tear it down and impede it at every turn. We all ultimately have to live with ourselves, never let someone chide you into carving up your soul.

Besides, what you let them do over there today will be done to you over here tomorrow.

I. love that our community will kill each other over simply pointing out the failure of our current governmental system means we can only choose between fascism and center right ideologies

Hmm fascism, fascism, or a real choice. Tough choice.

Sure if you want to run from your problems go for it. If you want to actually live long enough to try and fix the country and oust imperialists, there's only one option.

If you genuinely believe in "only one option," then you don't live in a democracy mate. I'm voting for the correct choice and you can do whatever you want.

Already got ours passports and flights booked.

We'll vote w/ somebody that agrees w/ our beliefs about what is "right" and hope the libs have a change of heart eventually...

Absolutely 0 faith in that happening though, so gunna wait out the fallout from outside of this clusterfuck ;)
