    Well let’s see since the last election when we were told we had to vote for Biden or else we’d lose abortion, trans people would have rights stripped and we’d stop doing covid relief we elected Biden and then all those things happened and we started doing the worse genocide of a generation.

    Dems keep insisting they’re the lesser of two evils but then completely fail to prevent the greater evil when given power electorally.

        This meme and this thread is not about local elections. Yes every serious communist participates in local elections (when there is something real to vote for)

          You were faulting Biden’s election for the abolition of abortion and the removal of trans rights when I’m pretty sure those are both indirect results of Trump being elected. Trump gave conservatives a majority hold in the supreme court which overturned Roe v. Wade, and the emboldening and legitimizing of radical right-wing politicians led to the increased removal of trans rights.

          What did you expect Biden to do to stop either of those things? I’m not defending the atrocities Biden has done and supports, but fault him for the correct things, not things that Trump caused.

        Yea I’m in New York state so unless I ball up my ballot and throw it at Biden so hard he dies my vote will literally have zero effect on the outcome.

        So I vote for whoever is running against Steffanick isf they aren’t a genocidal lib (they usually get about 12% of the vote, showing the likelihood of a good person ever actually getting elected) and then vote for whoever doesn’t want to get rid of public education for local elections but that’s usually somebodys aunt who agreed to run so a Maga lunatic can’t eliminate school lunches and bus routes.

        But check this out, none of those people have the ability, intention, or motivation to help murder thousands of innocent Palestinians.

        It’s actually not hard to not support genocide, unless you’re a lib of course.
