PHOENIX (AP) – The 2024 presidential election is drawing an unusually robust field of independent, third party and long shot candidates hoping to capitalize on Americans’ ambivalence and frustration over a likely rematch between Democrat Joe Biden and Republican Donald Trump.
Eh, kind of. I can’t live my truth unless my family is safe. The ballot step is huge, it is between us and violence. That violence is the thing I want to avoid. I’m not above being violent but for me personally I can be more damaging by pretending to be something I’m not.
I fully support you pushing for change, during the primary. I do the same. After that fucking do the right thing.
The ballot step IS violence. It is funding apartheid in Palestine, border walls, domestic terrorism, police violence, Latin American coup, poverty and the list goes on.
We never stop pushing for change or we lose. Change doesn’t have a state sanctioned season. Change starts in the street before it shows on the ballot.
Violence is not the only actions, marching in protests, stopping unlawful evictions, feeding the houseless, arming people with knowledge, prisoner support, mutual aid and support for grassroots efforts all foster material change. Direct action is the only thing that will stop fascism. That includes cutting off family but also leaving the fucking table or kicking em out of the house when they come to eat. Boss is a Nazi? Quit your job and tell everyone why. Ask for support when you need it. Remember if there are three people sitting at a table with 7 Nazis there are 10 Nazis at the table. When they start rounding people up are you going to shrug and say at least I voted for the other guy??
Lots of words to explain away bad decision making. Our system is broken because we have a Nazi party and a conservative party. If not voting gives more power to the Nazis, then you voted for them. I’ll vote conservative(Dems) and be happy I’m not helping the Nazis. Absolutism only helps Nazis rise to power.
Edit: you are making assumptions about how my thanksgiving happens.
Yeah you have no clue. Good luck with the bullying
You too.
