I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

    They are blaming people who are powerless and desparing.

    you reap what you sow, these are the same people that were proclaiming EXACTLY what you’re proclaiming now, just a few months before the election, 6 months prior, a year prior, two years prior. We’ve been saying this the entire time, nobody listened, nobody has started listening, and nobody will continue to listen, what are we to do if not watch the world burn?

      This is exactly what I am talking about. Do you care about democracy or not? Do you care about human rights or not? Do you care about Palestinians (Americans), African Americans, Latino Americans or all the others that are being blamed or not?

      If you do, you don’t just play the blame game, sit back and ‘watch the world burn’ as you’ve put it. As long as you’re divided, you’re powerless.

      Instead of blaming, you unite. Instead of antagonizing, you organize. Instead of resignation, you fight.

      Liberals have decided people opposing genocide are the problem rather than politicians willing to lose to even more fascist politicians, rather than accept less genocide.

        “liberals” have decided that people who make their only personality trait being opposed to one specific event of genocide are quite annoying and probably not very productive to be around. Especially in the off chance that the one thing they care about turns out to be wrong. (this is the problem with issues voters, and this is why nobody likes them)

        Both are the fucking problem.

        People who look at Trump and Biden and go, ew I’m not voting Biden because he supports genocide, are just saying they support Trump because he does even more genocide.

        Fuck off your fucking high horse.
