The discourse on American politics sometimes devolves to “Leftists who won’t vote” & “MAGA Republicans” teaming up to “getting revenge on liberals”.

    I’m glad that you’re taking direct action and using your time to affect positive change. With that said, voting in Texas is particularly important, since the GOP’s margin in the state has been thinning every year. Furthermore, if Trump gets elected, there’s a decent chance that sanctuary cities could cease to be, and so I again encourage you to vote; it doesn’t take very long and can make a literal world of difference. At the very least, you should stop discouraging other people from voting, because that runs counter to our shared stated goal, and is apparently wasting your precious time.

      I strongly disagree. The focus on voting only serves as a distraction from the direct action necessary to effect political change under a dysfunctional regime.
