People need to go vote, even if its holding their noses. And then hang around at the legal distance to make sure everyone gets to vote.

So we can pick from the choices that the oligarchs have selected for us. The corrupt, fascist choices?

Why? To validate a system that is hopelessly corrupt and killing off the entire human race?

@Quasit @oldoldcojote @AnarchoNinaWrites

Mm, impressive: you would have us repudiate the single avenue left available for non-violent change. In my eyes, that a Fail.

@northernlights @oldoldcojote @AnarchoNinaWrites A general strike is the single avenue left for nonviolent change. Voting is just a shell game that we can never win. Or do you REALLY believe that the oligarchs don't decide who all the candidates are?

Would a fair system have forced the American people to choose between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump? Or Joe Biden and Donald Trump? Or Kamala Harris and Donald Trump? Please note that ALL of these candidates supported genocide in Gaza absolutely, although the majority of Americans oppose it.

Just a wacky coincidence, you think?

If the oligarchs choose every Democratic candidate, how did Mamdani win the nomination?

Harris did not agree with Gaza; she was ready to shut Israel down once elected, but her wretched handlers (yes, the oligarchs) pivoted her to the centre and lost her the election.

I agree with about the general strike, BTW. So that's two avenues, in my opinion.

You may not have noticed, but not all of the oligarchs are geniuses. In fact, most of them are spoiled rotten and nowhere near as bright as they believe. That said, they did everything they could short of assassination to get Andrew Cuomo the nomination. Rememeber? Mamdani getting in was a fluke.

If Harris really didn't agree with the genocide in Gaza, she sure picked a funny way to show it! Insisting that she DID support it and wouldn't stop sending armaments to slaughter children seems like an odd approach - particularly since it was pretty obvious that that stance would cost her the election. So...we should credit her for lying to the American public? About claiming that she'd keep killing kids EVEN IF SHE KNEW IT WAS WRONG?

That makes her either a liar, or a sociopath. In either case it also means she handed the Presidency to Donald Trump for a SECOND time on a platter.

I'm really not sure how this is supposed to make her an acceptable choice for dog-catcher, much less the Presidency.

The oligarchy ALWAYS hands America a choice of shit sandwiches. Then everyone blames the voters when things go bad - rather than the oligarchs who actually make the decisions.

The Democrats have been part of the movement towards fascism all along. Giving them another chance is just pushing us all over the cliff towards extinction.
