the vibes have rotten to the core and now withholding for Palestine makes you the much-maligned single issue voter, as if genocide is just a tally on a fucking pro/con balance sheet. People who saw the mass movement and protests on the ground over the past nine months suddenly concern-trolling about no one ever organizing anything and just being nihilists doing nothing while they are doing, in contrast, ‘the bare minimum’. Breaking out reformist thought-terminating cliches and yelling at people with families in Palestine for not immediately being invested and engaged in the campaign of the VP of the current administration that is aiding and abetting the deaths of their loved ones. Total lanyard cultural victory. Americans by and large believe in nothing and have no principles, all they want is eternal 2014.

    “not voting blue is a vote for red!” is literally the logic of a bratty child who says you’re supporting the other group’s team by refusing to join the game, except america’s game is sponsored by pools of human blood

      “Okay I’ll vote for Trump then since they’re the exact same in your eyes.”

      Then they immediately back pedal and start hemming and hawing over definitions.
