    This is just an endless repetition of the same tired arguements you’ve posted multiple times in this reply alone, never mind the myriad replies to me and others. So I’ll try to strip this down to the simplest core points possible.

    I don’t care who you vote for. Vote whatever and move on. If you’re concerned about the state of the world, pull the lever and then focus your attention on something more productive. Anything more productive.

    We’ve gotten away from it with this distraction, but this original post is about the wholesale criminalisation and incarceration of unhoused people in order to use them for defacto slave labour.

    You’re spending all this time and energy and intellectual effort on gaming out elaborate electoral fantasies like; if only we could get the politicians to hear us, in the right way, at the right time, then they’d change. They won’t. They don’t ‘hear you’ not because of timing or messaging, but because their material interests are entirely in supporting policies like this.

    You’re spending all this effort building an elaborate and doomed philosophy and strategy out of magical thinking and then more trying to get others on board.

    You’d be better off going and handing out toiletries to the homeless, doing mutual aid, literally anything else.
