    sadly we’re in the world where the bipartisan consensus is for endless warmongering and turning a blind eye to nazis

      That’s a pretty 1-dimensional perspective. If you understand both the shitty reality we live in AND that nothing is black-and-white, you will be a lot more effective at actually pushing the needle towards progress, like so many actual great activists have done which has gotten us to a world where your chances of being murdered and raped and eaten by bandits has fallen dramatically low.

          if it means supporting someone like this guy I’d rather be rotating on a spit tyvm

          That’s just utterly insane hyperbole that most likely has the opposite effect as you might think. I hope you grow more.

              Some people and animals learn they can get attention with negative behavior as much as positive, and just get stuck there forever.

                negative behavior like … not wanting to be on the same side as a former state department mercenary with a Nazi tattoo.

                  I love how you’re scrolling around to see if people are talking about you.

                  There are some really great hobbies out there that will give you a sense of accomplishment without having to feel connected to the toxicity of politics, I highly recommend taking a break.
