I have seen a lot of leftists advocate for direct action and opposition to casting any vote. What’s the plan for this direct action? What will its effectiveness be against a potential project 2025?
(This question is not directed to anyone who has decided to vote and engage in direct action, or the two Trump supporters on Lemmy.)
If you believed Joe Biden is as much of a fascist as Donald Trump, then you had four years to do something about it. What happened from 2021 to today? Nothing. You sat on your ass.
The Right has carried out two insurrections in plain sight (Jan 6 and Texas), and next time we have one, the far right will be blessed by the government.
If you think you can do something, godspeed, butwhy would anyone think that the next four years would be different from the last four?
I voted for Biden to “stop fascism” in 2020.
He proved that was fucking stupid when he became a genocide collaborator and I’m not making that mistake again. I now believe he’s as much of a fascist as Donald Trump, which is why he keeps trying to collaborate with the fascists to get a fascist border deal passed.
But! I have no idea what you mean by “do something about it” officer. I’m a good citizen, I would never do anything. 🙂
You can pretend you’re part of a superior in-group within the left, but I hope other leftists will stumble across your replies and realize that they haven’t been given any plan by anti-voters either.
Your replies are cope. A LARP.
I’m not pretending shit, I’m telling you the literal truth. There is no “in-group”. There is no “plan”. I keep telling you that I’m not doing anything, officer, but you keep trying to bait me anyway. I wonder why! 🤔
…and you don’t even bother to suggest doing anything. No soup kitchens, no organizing, no running for local office, no nothing.
It’s just a LARP.
I will say that soup kitchens are good but they can never accomplish anything beyond feeding people.
But I’m not going to performatively suggest doing something that doesn’t matter. What else you got? Petitions? Marches? 🙄
You’re 100% correct, and I’m voting across the board for Republicans so that the DNC will stop running facist neo-cons. It’s like Biden’s policies have been written for him by Trump, absolutely sickening.
🙄
Voting doesn’t accomplish anything. You can’t push Dems to the left, they’ll shit in your mouth and blame you for having bad breath.
