“I think Biden is old and not my favorite, so I’ll just stay home.”
Meanwhile, Fascists are literally trying to create an oppressive dictatorship…
I’m not American, but I’m definitely guilty.
“I feel like the Labour Party has lost its way, and their new leader just doesn’t impress me…”
cue opposition party taking power.
Shit, that sounds serious. What’s the third party everyone’s gonna vote for to fix things?
In the realm of unicorn farts and leprechaun cum.
unicorn who?
+/- 50% of the USA is willing to vote for a dictatorship. The propaganda machine of the republicans is remarkably strong, or is it the Russians / Chinese again? The 2024 elections might be the last, real, elections for the USA.
is it the Russians
Probably not, they have their own “election” to worry about. Can’t say for Chinese though.
Considering Pamfilova can pull any number from electronic voting, I wouldn’t e as confident if I was you
True, but they still have to put up a show and try keep opposition at bay. Will be a tough one after they, you know, declared a war, lost hundreds of thousands of people and pissed off the entire world.
Wings are just a liberal conspiracy to make us all gay!
Hah, no wings. Take that libtards.
And between “it could be worse” and “worse,” a lot of people have stupid excuses to let things get worse.
"I’ll take ‘worse’ as long as it’s absolutely awful for group I hate!"

Libshit for enforcing the status quo.
The only thing that voting can effect is status quo or fascists who want to make it so you can’t even vote on that.
Sure, take other actions to enact change. Protest, join activist organizations, start a mutual aid group in your area, convince your coworkers to join a union, etc. Your vote is only good for these two options though, and it takes little effort to use it.
It’s like saying people shouldn’t protest because it’s unlikely to change anything, or people shouldn’t join a union because it won’t destroy capitalism. Everything is part of something bigger, and choosing to just not participate in one part that you don’t like because it makes you feel like you did something (while doing literally nothing) doesn’t help.
What other activities do you participate in? Are you involved in unions or other unionization efforts? Do you organize protests? Do you actually do anything, or just tell people to not take the smallest effort action they can?
There are plenty of voting options that aren’t status quo or fascist. Choose on of them.
Yeah, but they’re fake options. It doesn’t do anything. Take other actions, but voting you get two choices in our system.
What meaningful action do you take, which doesn’t include voting?
Diluting your vote is supporting fascism.
Liberal logic. Participating in Democracy is fascism.
