Voting is one of many tools at our disposal - and right now we need all the tools we can get.
So, don't shit on voting - do vote!
Do the other things too, but don't skip the vote.
People not voting is why we're in the situation we are in right now
Yeah man, the Neo-liberal turn? The war on terror? The GFC? All irrelevant, "people not voting" is the reason we have a goddam Cheeto in the white house.
Yes but they don't want to admit that, since it makes their feelings hurt, so they pretend voting is useless.
Even as much as I love the Fediverse and tend to lean pretty far left, sometimes this place honestly feels like a Marxist circlejerk.
