How many other opinion pieces get downvoted like this? I don’t think it’s that it’s an opinion peice. I think it’s an opinion many don’t want to hear.

Why join a suicide pact or death cult when you could just buy a SUV and eat Meat every day? Take the whole population with you.
Yeah were not getting any movement on this until people like Pelosi are far removed from any role in the democrat party. They’re just gonna keep pointing and screaming at the big orange distraction because it’s a lot easier than making peoples lives better.
This is like when the dumb kid in math class uses the wrong formula but gets the right answer.
The United States is simply three weapons manufactures in a trench coat appearing as a government. I will keep saying this until even I’m tired of hearing it.
They are literally advocating for civil war as a means of change, but refuse to engage in any behavior that would contribute to that goal.
Well again that’s only if you’re only thinking about your own perspective. If that person had your perspective, we wouldn’t be here. Do you consider it bizarre for someone to believe that were already on the path to civil war, much the same way you believe you believe engaging with the electoral system will yield progress? It’s not as if there are no signs of widening divisions in the country, authoritarian leaders trying to seize power, violent political rhetoric, militarized police forces, and dysfunctional governance.
Their comments are deleted now, so I can’t even reference them but lets look at the democrats own messaging. When the dems say things like “vote like your democracy depends on it” it’s not unreasonable for them to infer that staying home would then mean hastening of a civil war. So either them protesting the vote does indeed contribute to the goal of civil war, or this elections not as important as the messaging they’re probably getting blasted with is making it seem.
so long as you don’t examine your own inaction too closely.
Re-read you own comment, not for any argument or point I’m making, but just for your own benefit, you could learn from yourself once you realize you’re not above your own advice. If you wanna mock someone else’s effort, best be sure you’re actually doing something meaningful, because voting is not much harder than abstaining in protest. Both are interactions with the electoral system and both only impact the electoral system.
Honestly probably not, you continue to show you have no interest in understanding any reasoning other than your own which you seem to think is the ONLY way to achieve just and desirable goals. It’s right there in the first reply I gave you, but now you want to water it down with whose ambitions are just and whose are not. Theses have no bearing on what you choose to mock them for, which was their means of obtaining their goal. If you wanna mock them for being dumb and self destructive go ahead and do that, but you didn’t do that you mocked the amount of effort they applied, then got mad when it was pointed out that it’s just about the same amount of effort you apply.
That doesn’t make your statement less hypocritical. You didn’t call them out for wanting a civil war, you called them out for only voting to achieve their goals.
Google is damn near spyware. If they de-googled Russia the NSA would have to double its staff.
If all you do is vote once every other year, what right do you have to say that person should do more to support their ideas than you do for yours? People who say what you say also say stuff like “I dont like biden but . . .” And no one asks them to prove they tried to field a better candidate than Biden to prove it.
If you’re voting for someone you consider the ‘less evil’ option but then do nothing to fix the evil you voted for, you’re exactly the same as the person you criticized.
When you have a record like Israel for murdering journalists, whos gonna expose your lies?
Biden is the most progressive genocide financier and strike breaker we’ve ever elected! Im so energized to go to the polls again, happy days.

What disgusting people those ‘settelers’ are.
Yeah and whos gonna stop him? It’s not like he was doing something as horrible as condeming the Israelie slaughter of innocents, then maybe we could do something like hold a vote on how much we don’t like him.
“Hello yes I’m your insurance agent, now before I read this decision to you, are you now or were you ever a lawyer? No? Okay denied get fucked L + ratio.”
Republicans could call all jews the k word but as long as they still support Israel, they’d be fine, and probably get aipac donations for it.
Most of his base likes him because he’s a bad candidate. They have been trained by their chosen media to desire bad traits and cast uncertainty and doubt on good traits. They love him precisely because he is horrible. If there was a worse candidate than Trump, they’d vote for them instead. In fact many of these people who are already fed up with Trump are going right to RFK because they desire bad traits.
