  • The left hand is preserving democracy so both-siders can decide to participate by running for office instead of just telling people they’re stupid for trying not to steer the country directly off a fucking cliff. The lesser of two evils work if it slows the descent into fascism, by refusing to participate you’re not only saying you don’t support the people who are running, but also that you don’t give a fuck about where the country could be going.

    But of course your contribution is to support nobody and just watch the fucking wheel spinning in the wind while the whole fucking thing heads toward an iceberg. I don’t want either person to grab the wheel, so I’ll convince everyone else to stay away while I do nothing.

    The country is designed to work, the apathy of the majority ensures it doesn’t. Pretend it’s your country and participate, preferably starting last fall.

    Honestly I’m wondering what part of what I said lead you to believe what you claim to believe I said? Do you believe that Biden was actually Netanyahu in disguise? Do you believe that the guy in office who wants to ship Gazans off to Egypt so he can build a resort on what was their homes?

    No, I think you believe that triggering Americans with false equivalencies is entertaining, and you’re probably right.

    What I’m having trouble with is deciding if you’re pushing this narrative for russia, to keep Americans distracted while krasnov disassembles the whole thing from inside, or if you’re supporting Israeli PR, making everyone look toward the big bad guy instead of the big bad guy
