      The United States has a uniparty; all voting does is change the decal on the genocide machine. Vote if you want, I don’t really care, but don’t act like it does anything of substance.

      Don’t only vote. But fucking vote.

          Most states have cheating in the primaries, both parties: unless you are lucky to live in a state that uses a voting system which prevents that.

          What is the purpose of participating in a primary unless the votes are transparently counted and recounted by humans who are witnessed by representatives of the candidates?

            If it is to raise awareness of the cheating, then some participation maybe good? Like, if the candidate or party/org is allowed to point at the the problematic voting system and propose changes etc as part of campaign promotion.

              I would be totally behind raising awareness of proper vote counting with paper ballots; except that is what I did for years in my state, at first inside the Democratic Party ; then later when that had no traction, outside of it.

              There is zero demand or push for better vote counting that I saw in the progressive wings of the Democratic Party. And equally few cares given by people in the republican side.

              I spoke to activists in minority communities and there is zero momentum there, and no appetite to take that on.

              In fact, it was such a sad experience for me, that it’s what inspired me to become a communist.

              I’ve experienced trying to raise awareness and it only raised my awareness, not others.

          What the fuck are you trying to say? Genocide is being treated as a bipartisan issue in the name of voting democrats. Who gets the cookie? is it crackers for the cracKKKers? You’re vile that you completely wrote off the Palestinians if it means you get that cookie. Disgusting.

              both sides don’t give a shit about some mostly homeless people on the other side of the world.

              LMFAO what a mask off. Talk about dehumanizing the pain and misery your country inflicts on the rest of the world as “some mostly homeless people”

              Have you considered following your leader?


              Edit: I just looked at your modlog and wow. This does explain why the Hitler particles detector was beeping hot when pointed at your posts.

              (“Not giving a shit about them” when referring to Palestinians and the genocide they are going through)

          /> Human rights

          • Every regime has deported more people than the previous regime
          • All Kamala could say about trans people was that “they should follow the law”
          • Every regime has increased police funding and expanded the carceral state.
          • Roe v Wade was overturned under Joe Biden, who did fuck all to stop it
          • Roe v Wade could have been enshrined, or whatever the fuck the word is, under Obama
          • Obama was the one who expanded ICEs budget and purview
          • Joe Biden was a fervent supporter of Israel
          • Joe Biden sicced cops on peaceful protesters
          • Joe Biden had people disappeared in black vans during the riots in 2020

          What human rights?

          Your argument seems to be “well they’re not throwing me in the camps” but seems like they’re well on their way to doing exactly that and you’re just strengthening them.

          Are you even serious?

          are you serious? 99% Hitler vs 100% Hitler? Except you only care about domestic issues and don’t give one fuck about people outside your country. You don’t even consider them human when you talk like this.

          Fucking disgusting. How about overthrowing your fucking genocidal governments?

              Why is this hard?

              Why is this hard for you?

              but one side is genocide both at home and abroad

              You people are fucking pathetic btw. Palestine is going through daily bombings, dehumanization, torture and mass killings. All as part of your country’s push for genocide along with “Israel”. And they are still struggling and fighting and resisting.

              And you experience ONE BILLIONTH of the pain and you decide turning genocide into a bipartisan issue is the way to go!

              Selfish and monstrous.

        Joe Biden was pretty big on suppressing MeToo. And I dont know if you recall but the democrats are also on the Epstein list.

        shut the fuck up and hold your nose and vote for the candidate that’s not pedohitler

        They’re all pedohitlers. You people only care about Trump because he is mean to the domestic population and their vassal states.

        Literally they are all on team genocide.
