    Unless I’m the one who’s misunderstanding lol

    No, you’re not. If voting could undo fascism it wouldn’t exist. If the wants of the majority of people in the US actually counted the US would be a place we couldn’t even imagine in this reality - and so would the rest of the world.

    downvotes are from people

    I got the exact same response in 2016 as well… even leftists who should have known better hysterically accused me of “accelerationsim” for stating that a Trump presidency would energize the left - which it did (mysteriously, without any “accelerationism” on my part at all).

    I don’t blame them… people are grasping at straws. It was the same in 2016.

      yes, we could have preserved basic human rights for women by just voting for them directly when we had the chance, but it’s much more entertaining for me if a bunch of people suffer needlessly to achieve the same goal

      How fucking privileged can you be? This isn’t a fucking game. Grow the fuck up.
