    Not just voting, but yes engagement with the electoral system in various ways. As well as volunteer work and organizing.

    But I can say I’m done with that now.

    I noticed my post got nuked. Interesting.

    Edit: Also “siding” with the brown shirts? I merely aim to survive them. If not, oh well at least I’m done dealing with the bullshit of being alive I guess.

    EDIT:

    Edit: Did he delete his comment? I can’t see it. But dude went full lib-fascist. Told me he hopes the brown shirts come for me.

    A mod deleted it.

    I was being a smart ass because I assumed you and your type are trying to drag me into a violent conflict and I wont engage with that, not after this election result.

    Besides realistically they’ll come for both of us and then we’ll be dead and not have to worry about this shit anymore. Its laughable that we’d be able to put up a fight: we would be turned into red mist.

      It’s so odd to be upset at people not voting and then deciding that you would rather just roll over and die than resist anything. Yeah dude, that’s how history works, people that are oppressed fight against unbeatable odds. But mocking people that want to fight against genocide is siding with the genocide. “If we can’t win I won’t even bother” is the exact reason that we can’t win. So many dumb Americans like yourself are ok with being completely pacified by neoliberalism, give zero shits about what happens to others, and then get upset at the people actually going outside and helping people.

      Get your bull shit nihilism out of here. Don’t shame people that didn’t vote and then turn around and say you’re just ready to roll over and accept fascism. Go enjoy the toys that pacify you then. Why spend time caring if people voted or not? Go watch Netflix and ignore politics.

        HalfSalsman would be happy with Neville Chamberlain in office and claim since he gave the seat to Hitler, we can’t do anything to stop him and should obey quietly.

          Yep. It’s the position of liberals throughout history. It’s even worse now though since their are so many more “toys” to keep them pacified. Like as long as they can watch YouTube and eat Taco Bell they’d be ok with their neighbors getting shipped to GITMO.
