Yeah, no shit. That doesn't justify throwing our votes away on candidates that simply have no chance. Trying "something different" for the sake of saying you tried something different does nothing but feed your own ego. In the meantime poc, women, and the lgbtq community will be thrown under the bus with another trump presidency.

I'm honestly skeptical of anyone that's pushing for not voting or for voting 3rd party because republicans are pushing this narrative hard right now. They know nobody sane will vote for trump so their best bet is to discourage voting for either candidate. If you're not working for the republican party on purpose you honestly might as well be since you're spreading the same rhetoric they are.

That's simply not how it works, unfortunarely. I'm not willing to risk a trump presidency by throwing my vote away.

No, I'll blame people like you exactly like the first time trump got elected.

At that point you're voting for trump and that's all there is to it.

Do you not see how weird it looks? We don't use typewriters anymore you're being silly

[–] OftenWrong@startrek.website 2 points 8 months ago

No, it's not. I get the feeling you're not very active in communities that are against the genocide if you actually think that.

They've been pushing "both options suck so why bother" rhetoric really hard too. They know they can't get people to vote for trump so their best bet is to get them not to vote

It's not going to sell. It literally can't because of their laws around proprietary tech. They have stated very clearly they will not sell and the people who voted yes knew this before they voted. They voted for a ban.

The fact that you would compare the "young people" fed up with the ridiculous state of our news media to maga just shows me that you're out of touch. You can't just google this stuff or do a quick search on tiktok and magically know what you're talking about. It's so egotistical that you wrote all of that and you have clearly not spent a single solitary second experiencing most of the things your opinions are based on.

I'm not "young people" and I think you'd have to be willfully ignorant to not see where they're coming from in regards to the sorry state of our news media.

Sometimes fun is wasteful and you're just making that assumption because if it's fine for the environment you really have no good reason to complain other than being cranky

I mean.. Other than them dying that shit green none of that sounds that different from what goes on over here in general

Because we deserve a little god damn joy in our life without some asshole billionaires paying to eradicate it for their own gain. That's why.
