Fits the rest of their LARPing, honestly.
Well, I doubt even now citizens of any former Soviet Republic can vote for Biden.
I'm so glad that I live outside the US. Not that we have good options but at least more than 2. I guess I would still vote for Biden but I wouldn't call it a democracy
If we had more options then it would be Bernie Sanders
And we never even get the chance to vote against capitalism. Or the status quo.
I can't believe France wom that election
The French flag is blue/white/red, it could be the Dutch or Paraguayan flags flippes on their sides for example.
Ir it could be the hcnerF
This meme is the classic them vs us, which by itself is how facism starts. The world is not so black and white. If I was American and could vote, then I would vote some third party that actually represents my views, since that is the only choice that would make sense. Also tankies criticised both trump and biden as we'll, it's not bad to be against the mainstream, if both options are shit. If everyone would think more critical this situation would not exist.
I wonder what their idea of the outcome is.
Tankie: "I convinced 20 Democratic Party voters to stay at home (and did the same for 0 Republican Party voters). Wait until Democratic politicians see that more voters favored the far right party. Then they're going to move left and fall on their knees and beg me to forgive them."
(Cue scene: swastika-adorned tanks rolling past the window)
"Stupid liberals, unwilling to fight the fascists like us true leftists." (Watches tanks and twiddles thumbs.) (Fetches keyboard.) "Let's tell everyone online that it's their own fault and they deserve this." (Sudden sound of harsh knocking on front door.)
At best, their actions will "only" cause another grid-locked presidency where progressives can't get their reforms to pass (which will then be used as the reason to abandon the likely last line of non-violent defense against fascists).
But this is the whole point of the ~~red fascists~~ tankies
Indeed vote for the ~~blue fascists~~ tankies
🥱
This message condones 80,000 votes for explicit fascism before accepting a single communist abstention.
Wtf is this messaging.
The biggest joke here is that US voters will ever be able to directly vote for the President
I'm hopeful for the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, but not holding my breath.
