Not to say that everyone that votes for Trump is a Nazi, but we do know who the Nazis are voting for.
And probably you should look at your ballot and vote for democratic people like Democratic representatives or local government on the democratic party. When you do that, next election will be easier to win by the Democrats. That way we can take a breather and finally abolish the stupid electoral college. It's 2024, we can easily vote by phone 🤳. Give people a nice moth to vote on....like July maybe? So they can take a free day to vote when there are no hurricanes or snow pack or whatever bullshit happens in October. And then change over to a new government the next month.
Great in theory, but there are too many people who fellate the god of tradition while stroking the hard-on of American exceptionalism and are unwilling to look at any other example of functioning government.
This is defeatism and giving up before you even try.
My state recently started allowing early voting, I voted Saturday. This year a minimum wage raise and an attempted pre-emptive ban of RCV proposition were both on the ballot. That old trope about "if you don't vote you can't complain" is true and we all have to participate and try to make the changes we want.
It's not a defeatist attitude because I still make sure to vote in every election and do what I can to move the needle to the left.
A pessimistic attitude, for certain. But I'm still participating to keep the candle of hope burning. I'm not defeated yet.
