When will be your “this is the last fucking time I’m voting for the ‘lesser of two evils’, then I don’t care after that, let this country burn to the ground”? For me, this is basically it. This is last election I’m going for that " lesser of two evils" bullshit. After that I’m done. It’s just pointless. Let’s hear it.

    I just don’t think voting for the least useful candidate who happens to be the one up on stage is by definition more useful. It’s similar to upvoting/downvoting a Reddit comment when almost everyone else is going the opposite way. You could argue resistance is futile, but you’ll probably do it anyways.

      okay, well if the republicans had their way i’d be tortured forever in conversion therapy, there’d be no movement at all on green energy, the solution to homelessness would probably boil down to if you’re going through a rough patch it’s execution time, christianity would be mandatory

      both sides are NOT the same… 1 side is mostly inept, and the other side is actively trying to persecute people, to which i’d say

      First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
      Because I was not a socialist.

      Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
      Because I was not a trade unionist.

      Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
      Because I was not a Jew.

      Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

        Both sides support genocide, and you’re just pinkwashing it at this point. Give the VBNMW nonsense a fucking rest; that tired-ass slogan is exactly why the wastes of skin and bone feel no need to actually move progressively.

          both sides support israel, 1 side is on the record as having said that israel’s reaction is overboard… no action still, but both sides are not the same

          i’m absolutely not pink washing… republicans are horrific to queers… given that you’ve even suggested that, you’re pretty much beyond reason, but i will say: just look at the don’t say gay bullshit in florida… culture wars cause huge increases in suicide rates amongst the queer community

          im not got blue no matter who; im vote in the way that’s most likely to produce a positive outcome in things you want to change… on every metric and category, right now, that’s getting as many people as possible to vote democrat… id suggest people look at republicans if they had policies that weren’t detestable around:

          • equal opportunity (queer, women, race, wealth, etc)
          • environment
          • social services

          … but they don’t

            Talk is a free action. Let me know when your “at least he’s not trump” actually does something that isn’t tacitly supporting a genocide by looking the other way and funneling materiel. You. Are. A pinkwash. I just hope you’re getting paid well by your handler.
