I received my ballot a week ago and I couldn’t bring myself to fill it out yet. I’m scared of another Trump presidency if that is what happens, but I can’t keep supporting Democrats that have become what they claim to hate. I know if I vote for her that I’m sending a message that they can keep using the same playbook to move closer to fascism and corporatocracy.
They use their influence & power to eliminate opposition, and their donor money to astroturf social media. They censor other voices online, and spread lies about other people (Jill Stein) without evidence. They gaslight and claim you’re fascist for telling the truth and blame others for their mistakes. They’ll use your money to pay for genocide while turning a blind eye to help themselves, but make a thousand excused why they can’t help you.
They don’t deserve to win. Trump will be bad and I’m scared about what will happen if he wins, but you and I are not to blame. All they had to do was be truthful, transparent, empathetic and genuine—but their lust for power got in the way.
The point for people to vote for Stein isn’t cause she’ll win this election. It’s to send a message. Kamala didn’t earn my vote and her supporters harassing, threatening, and slandering me nonstop doesn’t help. Everyone is entitled to vote for who they want and Democrats have crossed into the voter intimidation category. Like I said, Democrats are heading towards fascism and their supporters will allow it.
Ok, if we get Trump, you helped it happen.
If Trump gets elected you and Kamalacide helped it happen.
That makes no sense. Good luck with your single digit voting percentages and “having your voice heard”. Harris is the one chance this country has against descending into chaos and you’re out here gambling on it. Here, a little excerpt from Wikipedia regarding the 2016 election:
Russians worked to boost the Stein campaign as part of the effort to siphon support away from Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and tilt the election to Trump."
You’re right where they want you. Angry and willing to throw your votes away, towards a candidate that doesn’t have a semblance of a chance, in a country that doesn’t give a fuck about your individual voice. You only have a chance if you’re in the majority.
Welcome to reality.
They boosted Bernie Sanders as well. Are you saying Bernie is a Russian agent because they boosted a campaign?
I’m not buying, “yeah Kamala’s statements and policy on Israel are pretty bad, but Trump is worse” argument. Find a better candidate or demand she change her tune.
I’m not saying that. I’m saying they’ll do anything to divert you from the only chance you have at some semblance of a functioning democracy.
So your end goal is a “democracy” where our politician gives our tax dollars and resources to another country massacring innocent people? And Kamala is likely to send our own soldiers to fight in an expanding war to help Israel grab land.
Obviously there is no choice; If you vote against you’ll just be ignored like most people who don’t actively try to discuss things with you. I hope you don’t get offended by reading that last sentence, but I truly believe that there isn’t a clear path to stop a genocide by casting a vote; perhaps there are other means to attain the goal in mind?
My goal is to keep a fucking madman out of the White House. Unfortunately, given the circumstances, we get what you mentioned (to some degree) no matter if Trump or Kamala wins. The lesser of two evils is the only viable option.
You’re worried about one guy? I get it to some extent but I think they’ll play this game as long as you let them. At what point will you say enough is enough? 4 years, 8 years, or will you just keep playing the two party system until Democrats become Trump and you still get it?
