If you want to vote cool. There’s arguements for strategic voting. There’s arguements for harm reduction, though in the US those arguements are pretty thin.
But in most of the US your vote doesn’t matter. If you live somewhere where it does and you think its better to vot than not, fine.
Talking all the time about voting and presenting it as a solution is a real problem. Literally lying that the Democrats are good as an attempt at harm reduction is very fucking stupid for socialists to do.
But voting itself is usually very quick and easy (especially if you’re white), so it’s generally silly not to. I’d rather fight Democrats than Republicans, and it takes like half an hour. It’s not a personal moral endorsement. If it took a few weeks yeah you should do something more useful for a few weeks, but it’s like half an hour. Despite the marginal utility, it’s probably better than whatever else you can do in half an hour.

But this liberalism you’re speaking is pointless.

I don’t think you and i disagree by much.
My point is more that, if seeing the above meme your reaction is that "this is dangerous because " than i think its just lib nonsense
Yeah for sure.
