      The world is already burning around me. I’m not asking for perfection. I’m asking to stop burning the world around me. I’m asking to stop a genocide. I’m asking to stop sending weapons to genocidaires. I’m asking to stop moving to the goddamn right and pandering to the right. I’m asking to save trans lives.

      Also I can’t vote in your Hitlerite election anyway so what would it matter.

        You can’t vote in our election, so you’re trying to make sure the absolute worst happens in the US? You’re unwittingly helping to plot your own demise. That’s not helping anybody, that’s vengeance.

          Don’t forget the absolute worst happening in the Middle East, to the world’s climate policy, in Ukraine, and god knows where else. That will happen also.

          “Trying to make sure the absolute worst happens” HAHAHAHA. Don’t kid yourself. You think you’re so important with your little vote. You think I can affect your election? Laughable. I’m posting because I’m pissed off and it lets off steam, not because I am deluded by own agency.

            You could, instead, help post agitprop for change, lord knows we need it. Posting agitprop to make things even worse than the bad that they already are is not that.

              Get your head out of your ass. No agitprop will spark a revolution. No posting will. Stop deluding yourself with your own self-importance. Or my importance for that matter. I’m not “making things worse,” I am showing the truth and y’all can’t handle it. Y’all would rather vote for genocide, your own included. The revolution will not be televized or posted. I happen to do real good work but I don’t post about it and never will.

                  The things I do have impact. Posting isn’t a priority. Though it clarifies who my enemies are, those who would not see genocide as a deal breaker.

                    Sounds to me like you don’t see the climate apocalypse, mass deportations, accelerated genocide in the Middle East, use of nuclear weapons, and god knows what else, as a deal breaker. You’re fine with all of that, as long as you don’t have to contend with your greatest enemy: Voting.

                    Much better for the power to simply accrue to whoever has the money and connections to accrue it, unmoored from an organized system to try to keep the voice of the people involved in the machinery of government. Sounds great. I hope you don’t have to witness the results in this particular election.

                    I’ve learned as much as I want to about what you believe and have no interest in furthering this conversation.
