Not OP, but look, if someone, let’s say a stranger, has nefarious motives, they have an incentive to fake their mannerisms, this means relying on your empathy and social intelligence alone is a mistake since they may be used as a vector of attack.
In order to be safe, one must make sure they are not harmed or endangered in any way, this includes avoiding certain situations with strangers.
Also, don’t just randomly pathologize people just because you don’t understand where they are coming from, even if done with no harm in mind, you will come off as very disrespectful.
Neither is voting blindly, which can be used as a justification for Biden doing nothing against the genocide. Being passive is making things worse.
Advocating people put political pressure on a candidate to change policy = lazy.
Getting off your ass once every few years to vote, and do it unconditionally = the embodiment of activism.
ps. Calling me lazy for not voting in the americans’ elections is a very smart move.
Fucking hell, the liberals are using trans people as an excuse to throw the palestinians under the bus.
Look, if you’re going to disregard the palestinians’ human rights, then there will come a time when you’ll do the same for trans people, and they are amart enough to know that.
The queer people’s greatest strength is solidarity so spoiler alert, this won’t really fly, how about you use your vote as a bargaining chip instead of sTrATegIcALly voting no questions asked?
You are going out of your way to misinterpret what i say, i didn’t mention a third party.
You are assuming that the only options that exist are voting for either guy or not voting. Which is the main thing I’m trying to bring attention to as you are not the first person to comment in such a manner.
Also, Biden isn’t really doing much to reverse what Trump did, including stuff that affect immigrants.
If your main means to get more voters is shaming them instead of shaming your politicians then this lesser-of-two-evils game will only get worse, it had gone worse several times already.
Using it strategically does not equate to voting unconditionally
First instance of the word: “supporting genocide” as in voting for someone who will facilitate said genocide via funding.
Second instance of the word: “supporting fascism” by refraining to vote for someone who will facilitate genocide but will stop the fascism creep ongoing in the USA using (in my not so humble opinion) crappy legislation which can be easily reverted.
To defend myself more directly, one wouldn’t ask a Palestinian American to vote for Biden, that is, unless you lack basic decency, ehich means the tactic that the person above me uses wouldn’t be effective for anyone seeing themselves as a victim or even victim-adjacent to the ongoing genocide.
And I’m saying that working outside of the system or trying to apply political pressure is a tactic that is abandoned by liberals by default, which makes their tactic ineffective against the creep of fascism.
Excuse my long ass comment, wanted to drop the sarcasm for a sec and say what i really mean.
Direct action and or forcing the hands of politicians so more people have an incentive to vote
Trying to get people to support genocide and half assed half measures (that keep the door open for making things worse than they were before, which is very in line with the ruling class’ interests), and when they don’t, imply they support fascism 😌
Anti fascist sabotage is bad because violence, hmm 🧐
That’s a really wild guess lol, no, I’m Israeli. It’s most likely because I don’t use a normal credit card but something else that is anonymous and lower risk.
Agreed, I’d rather use GOG but they don’t accept my card :/
The original post was a self fulfilling prophecy and we all knew it from the very beginning!
Socrates if he made memes:
Oh, that wasn’t really clear for me 😅
Doubt it, the reason it got this far is because of complacency from the general populace, more complacency doesn’t let us keep our privacy and being ad free, the existence of lemmy is an example of that.
