    Nobody with a vote is irrelevant. It is simply too big a risk to let Trump win again. We need every last vote. We need all the leftists, communists, anarchists, whoever. It isn’t about supporting the system or Harris. It’s about stopping an imminent catastrophe.

      Every Palestinian father is my father. Every Palestinian mother is my mother. Every sibling is my sibling, cousin is my cousin.

      I won’t vote for genocide. I won’t. I’d rather kill myself. Just listening to the daily horrors coming from the Strip make me want to die. There’s already catastrophe! So many children starving or getting limbs amputated or being sniped in the head by IOF.

      I’ve listened to so many people beg for their lives. I’ve seen so many bodies.

      I hate this country I hate this country I hate this country I HATE THIS COUNTRY

      Fascism is here. Genocide is here. The catastrophe can not be stopped because THE UNITED STATES IS THE CATASTROPHE.

        And it will be worse if Trump becomes president. You can help stop that by voting. If you don’t vote, you aren’t resisting this coming to pass.

          Unless Trump fucks it up and causes Israel to lose. Unless Trump triggers a popular backlash like he did in 2020 and causes another historical protest movement. Unless Democrats become a real opposition party again and refuse to help him do genocide.

          We can’t actually predict what will happen, so I’m just voting with my conscience instead of trying to play 5D chess with my vote.

            You don’t need 5D chess to know that Trump would be worse. We have already seen it. Only last time he had sane people limiting his destruction. Now the lunatics are running the asylum.

              We already saw that he didn’t destroy democracy or start WW3. You can credit that to “sane people” limiting him but the fact is that what we saw wasn’t the Fourth Reich. It was just a shitty Republican president.

                    If you remember that parable, the sky actually did fall that last time.

                    Also, for the 1.2 million Americans who died from Covid, the sky did fall last time.
