For all you who think voting will change anything, I've got some swampland for you.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Most people who think voting will change anything also think it's the only way to change anything. So it's helpful to suggest specific direct action alternatives.

True, but it doesn't work at all. The illusion of representation is finally being exposed so that the masses can see what's going on. No matter who is voted for and wins, only a two party system will be allowed (that's who the elite control) and they aren't letting go of that power. So, until those go away, we eat shit.

Yer right. If the email lady would have gotten elected Roe v Wade would have still been overturned

Yeah. They probably would have found a way through bribery, blackmail, or extortion.

What do you think is going to make those go away?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Them, they need to go away

Only two options. God and revolution.
