No, not voting is not voting, and the democrats in power are just polite fascists.
You will never have me vote in the affirmative for a genocide, and plenty of others agree. Maybe demand the bare fucking minimum from your representatives.
Not voting has consequences, too. In this case, the consequence was allowing a fascist piece of shit to get the highest office in your declining country.
Your problem is, too, pride. Too proud to vote for someone who doesn’t represent you, even if it means you get a fascist regime who will cause, and has caused, so much more pain than the other choice would have.
Your choice to not vote contributed to that. That is a fact.
I know, right? How am I supposed to take that argument seriously?
This is not a situation where being technically logically correct matters. Of course we don’t AHKSHUALLY know. The world is complex and chaotic. Maybe if Harris got elected and started a reasonable administration the butterfly effect would have led to kim jong un launching all his nukes last month.
We don’t get to try both ways. Sometimes we have to estimate probabilities and acknowledge that all choices are flawed and come with numerous risks.
Just look at the news and be honest with yourself.
So did Trump.
The choice was: Harris, Trump, or no vote. At this point, not voting was synonymous with paving the road for Trump.
So, whatever it was that made people choose Trump over Harris, or not voting over Harris, was either a deliberate Trump choice, or a pride issue.
“No, I refuse to vote against fascism because the other option doesn’t really align with my views on the world”
Fuck. Off.

I voted PSL actually.
Also you don’t know this is the lesser pain option, a second time line is conveniently imaginary.
Oh, please.
