Canonical Strawman Leftist™ describing their utopia: “Everyone votes on everything, and we engage in thoughtful discussion to persuade our neighbors to make good choices with their votes.”
Same leftist describing today: “Voting is pointless, and it’s impossible to change anyone’s mind.”
LMFAO OP just tearing through the haters in the comments
I dislike leftist Seinfeld, even if he’d hate it.
One day you’ll understand what “non voting leftists” truly mean. When kamala wins, and the world still spirals into fascism, maybe you’ll see what they mean
What the fuck are you on about. The other guy is saying, on record, he’s the fascist.
Your side has been saying the world was going to end since Obama was elected.
It’s the same, tired, racist, bullshit.
Fuck off, Nazi.
Why so angry? NPC moment for real. If god forbid i was American i’d vote for kamala but this high and mighty attitude of never holding your politicians accountable and ostracizing anyone who even dares whisper such thing is exactly what allows fascists like trump to reach the vote. Your blind rage for any kind of complex thought that goes beyond “blue good and red bad” is not as democratic as you think.
Drink a goddamn chamomile
At “best” they are an accelerationist, seeing Trump as a useful idiot to burn it all down, and then they can swoop in and “save” us. At worse, you’ve reached the Kremlin Election Emergency Hotline…
I’d vote for kamala, thank god i’m not a USer. I’m just saying that the only way someone like trump can get there is when progressives stop being progressive, when democratic politicians are not pressured in pushing the overton window left, then inevitably fascists will throw it to the right. Your shitty attitude is part of the problem and your refusal to even entertain any thought outside the voting binary shows how much of a tool you are
Genuinely laughing at how you construct a false premise and then continue building a mountain of straw men on top of it.
I guess that’s what happens when liberals abandon reality. Better luck constructing a coherent thought next time!

>You’re absolutely right. Most of these self-proclaimed leftists don’t even pretend to have any clue how to start a revolution, whilst demanding it as the only possible course of action.
Tbf, they’re mostly well aware that they’re too few in number to violently overthrow the system. So the opening of the OP is a bit of a strawman
Otoh they watch people looting an electronics store on tv and interpret it as ‘something is brewing’
There is no vote this election that will result in a better system. I’m not even sure there’s a vote that won’t result in a worse one.

I was living in Germany in '88-'89 when the wall came down. You got me, I’m just out here destabilizing countries for hire. Actually I’m just an American who has lived in righty places and lefty places and it’s made me a proponent of ranked choice voting. I think we get railroaded into a choice between two shit shows every year.
Weird you say no vote will result in a better system, and then claim to be a proponent of ranked choice voting. Which just happens to be on the ballot for at least one state.
So which is it?
Quick question, which places in USA have ranked choice voting and how many of those places are ‘lefty’ places?
There are a few but I’d have to look it up just like you. But I have lived in Portland, San Francisco, Minneapolis, Duesseldorf, Seattle. The ranked choice opinion comes from being someone who reads a lot and is generally anti-authoritarian. The US has two authoritarian parties.

Also look up which places have banned RCV and which political party is in power there.

If you honestly believe that then you’re a dumbass.
