Its bs like this that leads to inaction/ our politics going right. If you actually think this, please educate yourself on history and how politics in this country work, and stop spreading hopeless rhetoric. Some of us arent ready to surrender yet

screaming "we can push them Left!" when all the while they've been pushing you Right.

#us politics #our two parties are getting pushed right cuz conservatives vote in greater numbers than those on the left #and each year sees that becoming more and more true #we have a 2 party system cuz most people who want to see that change dont vote or only vote in the presidential #and the only way to change the 2 party system other than a revolution thatll kill millions of vulnerable people #Is To Vote in those other elections #like seriously do you hear yourself? why would a politician go left when people on the left arent voting?#politicians have to gain favor from voters and if people on the left are protest voting or refusing to #theyre gonna be forced to look to the right!#and the people who only vote in presidential elections but none of the other? do yall think we live in a dictatorship?#fuck this shit is so wildly ignorant it frustrates the hell out of me #not only do we have to fight conservatives we gotta drag yalls dead weight too??? and yall wonder why we're losing this war #and stop using genocide as an excuse thats not frustrating thats rage inducing #tell me you know jack all about us foreign policy and about genocide without saying it #when you use the suffering of palestinians to justify your protest vote that tells me you dont actually care about genocide #you only care about the method #cuz otherwise the things being done to poc indigenous queer people etc elsewhere would also send you to the polls #but no fuck everyone else all that matters is this one single genocide the rest? they can all die huh #never mind that there is literally tangible proof of how it will exponentially worse for palestine and the congo and the other genocides #if trump wins #who cares? as long as you can go to sleep at night
