And in protest, you’ve let the other guy win. Now you have your very own Stasi in the streets and your tax dollars are being spent on bombing schools and celebratory UFC fights. You… sure showed them, haven’t you.
Ahh the neoliberal “its the voters who are the problem” fever dream, where Democrats can never fail, they can only be failed by voters.
A fever dream which has resulted in the Democratic party having a lower approval rating than Trump. Surely defending Democrats as an institution and blaming voters will gather more people to your coalition and help stop Trump.
You gotta get it through your head homie. You blaming voters for the failures of the Democrats: Its why Trump won in both 16 and 24. You’re the problem if you take issue with how voters vote.
We needed a coalition of voters to stop Trump. Excusing Dems and blaming voters destroys our ability to build that coalition.
People who do that are wreckers. So stop being a wrecker. If you have this opinion and want to blame voters, fine, but keep it entirely to yourself.
You do know that it’s possible to do both, right? Putting the blame on third party voters does not absolve the Democratic party, and it’s weird that people keep presenting it that way.
Kinda wild to suggest some random nobody on lemmy has any reason to feel guilty. Do you think Biden feels any guilt for going around congress twice to ship weapons to Israel? I doubt it.
I’ve never shipped a single bomb in my life. Hell I’ve never even slapped somebody.
If Joe Biden can sleep at night then I sure as hell can.
It’s only part of a strategy, but yes, it takes time. I think we might see what happens when general discontent of the public becomes severe enough that they develop class consciousness. Well, those of us who survive the misery will get to see it.
Disclaimer: This strategy takes decades or centuries to have any effect.
ftfy…

“VOTING IS SO IMPORTANT”
“So you have to vote how I tell you.”
“Also everything is your fault, we’ve done nothing wrong.”
Fuckin dems lol.
Whatever soothes your conscience.

Except that’s exactly what it ends up doing.

Imagine basing your system of morality on whether or not some other person might feel guilty about a thing.
Wow, dude, talk about ideals.
Who was talking about my entire system of morality?
I just don’t feel guilty when I don’t vote for genocide supporters. Pretty simple stuff.
The effect of an individual vote is indistinguishable from it not having any effect at all.
The infinitesimal power of the vote.
