Supporting a political party that has been participating in a genocide is supporting genocide, the Democrats have been a genocidal regime worse than any in my lifetime

Trying to run a third party is the only viable reformist track- the democratic party is totally unresponsive to reform attempts- recall how Obama personally intervened to stop that last time. He even dismantled his own electoral apparatuses after his first run.

The endpoint of the lesser evilism voting is that you're browbeating people to not protest vote and instead vote for one of the two parties, both promising more genocide, one of which is directly implicated in an entire year of it so far.

To any outside observer ( the people you're trying to sway) it still looks like you support them and everything they've done.

I was using 'you' rhetorically rather than accusing you of anything. IDK how you see that as a hostile one. I'm just explaining why people get rubbed the wrong way by the the vote blue brigade.

If you are demanding everyone vote for the people bypassing Congress to send more bombs to the obviously grotesque war criminal country, people are gonna think you support them, because you are.

being taken seriously is like the last thing I want. The FBI agent assigned to me might have to actually do something.

Ironically “But Trump” is what got you Trump.

It's actually got us Trump twice now.

they have managed to set a trend for filling the night sky with shitty little low orbit satellites chewing up the ozone layer

If you're planning on leaving I won't miss you passive aggressively using only neutral pronouns for me or calling me insane.

You can totally have centrist extremists

So accusing left wingers of being right wing is okay as far as you're concerned if it's about an election

Pointing out that from a left wing perspective, Biden and the Democrats are doing bad things and their supporters are right wing: wrong, not descriptive, belongs in a tankie shit hole.
