And socialists do what exactly? Cry online and suggest everyone withhold their vote? How is this fixing anything. None of you bother to show up to vote anyway, so everyone pretty much writes you off as no big loss.
You believe in an untested/unproven system that has a VERY poor track record, and yet you smugly shout from the rooftops that you know of a better way while the only suggestion you all seem to have is guaranteed to destroy democracy- not voting.
And you wonder why people accuse you of being right-wing trolls.
So forgive the rest of us when we show it back that you’re not to be take seriously.
Votes should be withheld until they are earned, that’s how this democracy thing is supposed to work. With the current system your rights are held hostage by your own party for ransom in exchange for power. But in the end you never get rights, you get bread crumbs with more promises of rights which never materialize. When you are defending someone funding and condoning genocide you and your party are not the lesser evil.
A leftist refusing to vote for the status quo, which is not not progressive, is no more apathetic than a Democrat refusing to vote for a Republican. You have to decide if you want progress or keep things the same, because you can’t have both.
So not only do you admit you have no answer to my question, you also admit that the poll you showed is either bullshit, or contributed to your echo chamber and served to prove your confirmation bias.

VOTE LIKE LIVES DEPEND ON IT- because they do.
And you call us smug.

Ah, being apathetic again @anticolonialist@lemmy.world?

Yes. I call you smug. And suggesting that people don’t vote is about the most selfishly ignorant thing you can do.
Don’t forget manipulative and unethical.
I’m not saying don’t vote. I’m saying you don’t have to vote for either right wing senile pedo.
Name one third party candidate that can beat Trump in November.
I’ll be waiting.
Based on polling, your main line right wing senile candidate can’t win either
So you’re not going to name one, eh?
Oh and anyone with a brain knows polls are bullshit. It’s been proven.
Yeah, polls are bullshit unless they contribute to the echo chamber and provide confirmation bias
So not only do you admit you have no answer to my question, you also admit that the poll you showed is either bullshit, or contributed to your echo chamber and served to prove your confirmation bias.
Not very bright man.
