      Participating in the system isn’t going to change anything. We’ve been voting for the “lesser of two evils” for like half a century or more and it’s gotten exactly zero results. The last time we saw real progress in the west was when there were strong, militant unions and civil rights organizations out there fighting and dying for rights.

      do you think that Donald gives any more of a fuck about these issues than Kamala?

      Do you think that Harris gives any more of a fuck about these issues?

      You morons are advocating for murder against people who are literally trying to choose the lesser of two evils

      If anything, the lesser of two evils here is the less competent, more senile person to pilot the genocide machine.

        You act as if both sides are equally evil, when one side is in fact considerably more evil. Which isn’t to say that the other isn’t evil. That’s why it’s called the LESSER of two evils.

          Dems and Reps are on the same side. You just buy into the kayfabe and pretend that they oppose each other.

          when one side is in fact considerably more evil

          Notably, you have been unable to present evidence for this claim.

          That’s why it’s called the LESSER of two evils

          If anything, the lesser of two evils when it comes to the pilots of a genocide machine is the one less competent and more senile.

            If you can’t plainly see, no amount of explanation is going to open your eyes. One side is purely about the enrichment of the already rich.

              Biden and the dems has Trump beat on deportations, police funding, oil and NG expansion, welfare cuts, RICO prosecutions of leftist activists, media bans, wars and oh yeah fuckin GENOCIDE

              If an “explanation” was “plain to see” on your end, you’d have given it, because facts hit harder than “nuh uh”…but you didn’t cause you’re a know-nothing racist with the poltical knowledge of a toddler

              That’s what makes you dipshits so genuinely pathetic, you act like your an itern at some DNC consulting firm but you can’t even muster a single coherent argument on behalf of rich dems who don’t even know you exist

              You should have more self-respect :)

              Democrats aren’t about enrichment of the already rich? Wondrous!! I must vote for them post haste!! This must be why they’re so hard on the rich and capital and yet so kind to poor countries and the homeless!!

              This is a usual defence of people who actually have no backing for their case.

              What is plain to see is that you don’t actually have any evidence that supports your claim that either of the ‘sides’ (they are both on the same side - they have the same policies and they even openly finance and otherwise support each other) is ‘more evil’. Now that you are backed in a corner, you opt to attempt to save face by declaring your claim to be self-evident.
