You believe not trying all available avenues is the best option.
Imagine thinking voting was an available avenue against fascism.
Yeah man, i guess i should just sit at home and whine like you are.
Like you've been doing this entire thread? Lmao
The difference here being that youre advocating for doing nothing as the righteous choice.
I'm saying that not supporting genocide is a principled choice. You not agreeing with that is your problem.
And your "principled choice" led to even worse genocide.
So you got that going for you.
Oh, I see. It only matters now because something actually effects you. You can ignore genocide when it happens elsewhere easily enough, but it's too close for your comfort now, huh?
Please keep going about how voting was going to save us from something the Republican party has been trying to do since Reagan. Gonna block you now since I have more important stuff to do and you've already taken up too much of my time. Have fun seething!
