I'm a lib and think that voting for a racist rapist warmonger who was behind every bad decision for the last 40 years will stop the fascist slide of America, and not just give us a more competent Trump in 4 years after "nothing has fundamentally changed"
Of fucking course voting for Biden won't stop the slide. Voting won't change shit. IMO Trump losing might stop the fascist slide from being validated though. That part is It's a coin-toss vs Las Vegas slot machine.
but JFC. stop having a strugle sesh and vote shaming people and go knock on your neighbor's door. Electorism won't save us, building comunity networks can build up bulwarks though.
You stop the effectiveness of fear-mongering by getting to know people and letting people get to know you.
This. We could scream at each other all day about what vote is best or if it matters / is effective, but at the end of the day that is all theory.
What we know works for sure is building strong community relationships, developing networks with other like-minded people and reaching out to drag people in from the middle. Radicalizing libs ourselves and not hoping that whoever is in top seat will make them comfortable enough to be radical.
Every voting based thread on here leads to some real weird infighting - let's focus on what unites, not divides, us.
