Your answer was that it’s a bad symbol. If drag thinks the only reason not to vote Democrat is because it’s a symbolic admission of defeat, is drag understanding your argument as you wish it to be understood?
Xi rides dragons and also “rides” dragons. xi/drag person-independent pronouns. That means xi’s pronouns are the same in first, second, and third person.

Drag still wants an answer to the question you think drag should have asked. Drag doesn’t think that detail is worth delaying the actual conversation for.
Drag isn’t drag’s name. Drag doesn’t want to talk about pronouns with you, go bother someone else.
Drag doesn’t know. Is explo explodicle’s person independent neopronoun? If so, drag will refer to explo by these neopronouns from now on. Drag is happy that explo has decided to experiment with a new gender presentation.
That’s a circular argument. Drag asked you how voting props up the electoral system. You said “well how does propping up the electoral system help?” Drag agrees that propping up the electoral system is bad, but drag has not been told a reason that voting is that, except that it’s supposed to be a symbolic loss. Drag doesn’t care about symbolic losses, drag cares about stopping Trump from bombing the West Bank. Drag cares about Palestinian lives much more than symbolic complicity. Drag still wants to hear a practical reason why voting helps electoralism.
Drag hears that Biden even does Netanyahu’s laundry
Drag doesn’t get it. None of that sounds like practical, material effects. It just sounds like symbolic gestures. Drag wants to know if there’s any physical reasons not to vote, or just symbolic ones. Also drag is not a capitalised pronouns user, but drag is glad you’re willing to respect people with capitalised pronouns.
You’re not talking the same as drag. Drag is using drag’s first person pronoun, you’re just saying your name.
Drag is confused. How does voting legimitise the electoral system? Drag mostly does direct action, but drag also votes.
Drag is happy that you get to feel like you’re being peaceful, but sad that you’ve convinced yourself the way to do so is through apathy and inaction. Drag wonders if you’d feel the same way if you understood that choosing not to do a good thing is still choosing to do a bad thing.
You’re arguing with someone who would in all likelihood JUST NOT VOTE if not for an alternative option
Just because the big silly in this conversation is a big silly, doesn’t mean all the sillies are. There’s lots of sillies who are silly enough to vote third party but not silly enough to abstain.
That’s because Australia is using the seat system, which is like a supercharged electoral college. Australia needs proportional representation.
Drag saw Herbie and didn’t like it. Brum has much more character.
Not drag. Drag isn’t a human.
Drag thinks you made that dragon angry.
Drag is sorry your subjective world doesn’t have any dragons in it. Drag wishes you a more interesting life.
Drag is referring to dragself with drag’s first person neopronouns, drag/dragself.
In New Zealand, they put out the Christmas decorations as early as Spring.
Drag… Is drag. @dragonfucker@lemmy.nz
You forgot an important difference between ancient history and now. Now, when the empire falls it has the power to take the biosphere with it.
