if you would rather elect a fascist than a liberal you're not a leftist you're just edgy

"no one for president 2024" how are you gonna stop the electoral process? what's your game plan for eliminating every candidate? or is this just theater to you?

if you wanted to actually make any material difference, you'd evaluate the political power leftists have and then actually use it. there ain't enough of us to elect a leftist president, let alone stage some mythical Revolution. meaning that if the country collapsed right now, it wouldn't be leftists that take over.

if your goal is to lose with your hands clean then by all means just keep posting and nothing else, but if you want to fix anything on the systemic level then you need allies. you need to be able to work with people you don't agree with on everything. that means making momentary compromises when necessary. emphasis on momentary. if kamala gets elected, she isn't president forever, and if you vote for her, you aren't sworn to the democratic party.

low voter turnout has never made the US shift to the left before, so I don't know why so many tumblr users think it suddenly would now. decreasing voter turnout is a right wing goal, they pour obscene amounts of money into it. if leftists don't vote, that's less resistance for republicans, and it's frankly the only reason republicans ever get elected anymore.

I'm not gonna call anybody a psyop, and it doesn't really matter if they are or not, because it doesn't change the fact that y'all anti-voters are spreading conservative propaganda to own the libs. I've literally seen leftists arguing, at me, that "trump is actually less damaging for minorities" like are you fucking listening to yourself. you are so obsessed with owning the libs that you have stopped being critical of fascism. how do you not realize you're straight up parroting conservative propaganda?

someone is gonna get elected this year, and based on the polling data it's gonna be trump or harris. you can either increase the chances that it's trump, or increase the chances that it's harris. refusing to vote increases trump's chances, so that's probably not a particularly leftist move. if you think there is no difference between trump and harris, then either you aren't paying any attention at all, or you just don't care.

I listened to the anti-electoralists, I genuinely gave it consideration, and I'm sorry but it's contributing nothing to leftism, it's just conservative propaganda dressed up in woke language. they're the Useful Idiot for conservatives

When you berate people for drawing a line in the sand when it comes to genocide, it casts some doubt on your claim that you "listened and gave it genuine consideration". Genocide is one of those topics that should be UNDERSTANDABLY difficult to compromise on. So why don't you let people use what little power they have to protest and push for change?

protesting genocide by electing Donald "Finish the job" Trump. a foolproof plan that could not possibly backfire

Not voting as a โ€œprotestโ€ is so funny.

You canโ€™t boycott a vote lmao. All that happens if you donโ€™t vote is that you wave the option to have anyone listen to you.

Itโ€™s like showing up at debate club and taping your mouth shut. And then expecting to win.

Once again, and I cannot say this loud enough:

Boycotting only works in situations where money is at stake.

Boycotting a shitty company removes your sales from them, and sales and money are what they care about. Boycotting an election does nothing but remove your voice.

In politics, you have to vote strategically and then use protests and other forms of political action to pressure politicians into changing.
