    But the alternative is a gamble on fascism, in a 2 party system you have to pick the establishment you dislike least.

          Voting for Biden or whoever his replacement is the subjugation, and liberals cheer on their own suppression

            LOL, and if the Republicans seize power they’ll say “hold my beer” when it comes to any supposed “suppression” being done by Biden.

              Private prisons, welfare reform, crime bill, cop cities, providing military equipment to cops, arresting protesters, this list of subjugation by democrats is near endless. Republicans are no better, but we know what to expect from them

            But you will be, though. Standing by and not even voting does not mean you are morally superior.

            Except, by refusing to participate, you are. That’s how our system works. It’s stupid, but that’s how it works.

              There’s a better chance of you voting for a republican than any left is voting for a Democrat. We vote for what we want to see in government. Not constantly voting against something. Voting against something is a protest vote, that’s the wasted one

                No, you’re voting to move in the right direction.

                Voting is like taking the bus, you get on the one going the direction you want. And then, you get on another bus that continues to take you towards your destination.

                You don’t get on a bus going the opposite direction, or refuse to go at all unless there’s a bus going from your front door direct to your destination. That’s just stupidity. That’s what you’re advocating for, and we’re never going to get to a better place if people like you don’t wake up and see that.

                  I was on that bus a long time ago and assumed the driver knew which direction he was headed and knows his route. After being on the bus a while I noticed he was headed the wrong direction while also claiming we are almost there. I voiced my concerns he was headed in the wrong direction but was told to sit down and shut up, the driver knows where they are going, besides claiming we are almost there. As they continued to drive the wrong direction taking me further from my destination than I ever thought possible. I knew it was time get off the bus despite all the other passengers kept demanding I listen to the driver, and we are almost there if I just wait a little longer.

                    Touch grass.

                    Seriously, you’d have to be chronically online listening to Russian propaganda to seriously think the Democrats and Republicans are anywhere near each other.
