Please for the love of GOD stop thinking about voting as if it’s an endorsement, or that playing the electoral politics game by withholding a vote will ever get you anywhere. Voting is a a tool. When you vote, you are choosing your enemy. Democrats are a less formidable enemy. It’s that simple. Biden’s NLRB has given huge wins to the labor movement, also known as the only realistic force for liberation we have available to us (which will include ending genocide). Stop making it harder for everyone just so you can feel some bs moral superiority. Tell them you’re not gonna vote for them, make them look as bad and evil as possible. But as a simple practical matter, why the fuck would you risk letting things get objectively worse? Fixing this rotten country will take a long time, and any time republicans gain power they use it to roll back another ten years of progress. Why lay down and let openly criminal fascists ransack the country during this crucial time for the planet? You can say there’s no difference between them, but the republicans are just vastly more dangerous. We can’t afford to go any further right than we already are. Electoral politics is a distraction from real political organizing, but forfeiting your ability to set more favorable rules of the game (i.e. by keeping the worst of the worst out of power) is a foolish and self-defeating strategy.

genocide joe and the democratic party do not give one single shit about how you feel voting for him or if you think he is the lesser evil. every strident social media post and attendance at a protest and deep seated personal convictions and letter to your congressman are adults from charlie brown going Bwa Bwa Bwa to them. you speak one language they can hear and that's the ballot box. & if you vote for genocide joe, what they'll hear is "it doesn't matter how much the left whines, we can openly salivate for genocide and they'll still vote for us." if this doesn't lose them votes it is a green light for every democratic candidate in the future to take the exact same stance, forever. how can anyone who claims to care about electoral politics not understand that

Sex scenes should be cut out of all movies but they should be replaced by a series of strange avant- garde shots of industrial machines and objects grinding and rubbing and spinning and vibrating and whining and entering each other that implies some freak shit is going on

Practicing self control

What would it take?
