    First of all, I'm not American. Secondly, this is a shitposting site, so maybe make yourself scarce if you can't handle a bit of fun in middle of all this doom and gloom.

      Wait. You're not a burger and you post pro US electoralism bullshit? That's the most cucked thing I've ever seen.

      Edit: get better jokes. This one's played out.

        Nah I'm good. Guessing by the updoots, a lot of people still feel hope from watching -nominally- radical officials get reelected.

          People respond more positively to messages that confirm their relative privilege and obscure the need for radical and risky action. Shocker.

            "Hell ye gonna burn down this precinct with the bois" ~no one else shows up, riot gear police and swat teams take you down~ "Aww fuck, guess I didn't consider the material conditions of ordinary folk before I started my insurgency cosplay."

            Turns out you can participate in electoralism while also agitating for radical and risky action. A place of privilege is ignoring the material conditions now and refusing to explore every option we have of improving things short term.
