"Yes, some genocidal freaks actually ARE worse than other genocidal freaks"
if voting for someone isn't endorsing their actions then what is it?
Just something democrats deserve because they're not the other guy?
(Don't tell him about Texas, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Mississippi, and Florida)
According to libs, yes
Voting. Is. Not. An. Endorsement. Some blood gods are better than others. Enjoy being "morally pure" you privileged dipshits during Moloch's second term
to make it even better I am reasonably convinced they're the same god
Make Qart Hadasht great again
Voting for them actually does endorse their actions as them being our so-called representatives are litterally acting in our name using our tax dollars to do evil shit. The DNC is excuding privaliage if they think we are going to re-endorse their bad actor for another term. Bvoting is the only performative say we realy have in this system.
And
YOU. DON'T. OWN. US. YOUR. PARTY. IS. NOT. ENTITLED. TO. OUR. VOTES. WHEN. YOU. BACK. FASCISTS. AND. ASSIST. IN. GENOCIDE. AND. CRIMES. AGAINST. HUMANITY.RUN. BETTER. CANDIDATES. JACK.
ASSES.I'm not religious, but I am praying for the black wings of the god of death to descend on these two. Not that it would make a difference but at least it would end this particular game of charades
Literally doing the meme
Voting for someone gives them a mandate. This is electoral politics 101.
Biden wants to ethnically cleanse 100% of Gaza while Trump wants to ethnically cleanse 101% of Gaza, so I'm forced to pick Biden as the lesser evil.
102% (with a 2% margin of error)
hope you enjoy feeling morally pure
yep, feels pretty nice to maintain my morals. Everytime genocide Joe gets up to some shit I can at least say to myself "I never voted for that fuck." Probably should try to run a candidate that's not completely immoral if that's something you're worried about.
"yes, I voted for Hitler, but the alternative was even worse!"
nice to see where the bar is
also voting for someone is literally endorsing them
no more half measures walter
If Donald is so dangerous why don't you just Content Warning him?
You know, they’re called liberals
Yet they seem to be anti-liberation
Militarism, policing, immigration, healthcare (covid), inflation, leftist mobilization or lack thereof, weaponization of RICO laws against leftists and marginalized people, carbon pollution and fracking/drilling
Biden is literally worse than Trump
Also he nominated the current Fed chair so you can blame the rising interest rates on Biden too
weaponization of RICO laws against leftists and marginalized people
What's going on with this?
CyborgMarx is talking about how people protesting Cop City are facing trumped up RICO charges.
Protesters and Black activist groups protesting Cop City in Atlanta had a RICO case brought against them by a dem aligned prosecutor
They can't keep getting away with it
Biden is literally worse
Democrats: We can’t have anyone else because only Biden has high electability
Voters: I don’t want to vote for him
Democrats: NOOOOOO BUT HE HAS HIGH ELECABILITY!!!!
By voting for any old piece of shit with a (D) this time, we incentivize the party to listen to our needs and run someone better next time.
God damn. I know the John Brown quote is cliche, but god damn.
Just what the entire fuck. Like yeah, of course they would, but they've never just said it out loud before like this.
Voting. For. Someone. Does. Not. Mean. You. Endorse. Their. Actions.
Yes, some genocidal freaks actually ARE worse than other genocidal freaks, and Eichmann IS still worse than Röhm. But I hope all you privileged dipshits enjoy feeling "morally pure" during Eichmann's second term. 🙄
Good thing I voted for Hitler then, pheeewww, dodged that bullet
This. Is. An. Investment. In. Democracy.
This will be the most important election in our history. Except for the last one. And the one before that. And the one before that. And the one before that. And the one before that. And the one before that. And the one before that. And the one before that. And the one before that...
First they came for the Palestinians and I spoke out in favour because otherwise there will be a dang cheeto in the white house.
Damn I've used that line a lot but I didn't realize it was from No Country for Old Men.
a key Chigur move is to suddenly stop smiling before you say "of what use was the rule"
i know that 50% of how upsetting Javier came off in that movie has got to be that fucking haircut, but he definitely pulls his weight with his facial expressions and voice.
The hardest line
Further down he writes it "would be nice if a third party or a better candidate was viable, but they're just not".
Me, while I am shitting on the floor: "Sure it would be nice if the floor was clean and not full of shit, but it sadly is, so treating it like a massive toilet is sadly the only viable solution. I wish the floor wasn't full of shit too! If only there was a way to do something else, but sadly there isn't."
Edit: Like a bout of diarrhea, this analogy ran away from me. I am trying illustrate how, if you believe in representative democracy, then voting for any other reason than believing a candidate represents your values adequately, you will be poisoning the well.
What does this guy think REPRESENTATIVE democracy is?
Libs. Have. Done. The. Period. Thing. To. Fucking. Death.
Didn't know I, a queer Jew, was "privileged". And I'm not going to take lectures in complacency from a democrat.
You literally just won the election, and spent it all twiddling your thumbs because you were satisfied with that alone.
The horrible thing is that democrat shills would probably call you privileged and tell you you're a fake jew and a slur for Hamas, we saw it in the MSM when US jews started protesting for Palestine (also when LGBT people speak up for Palestinians as well)
i didn't
for either of these dudes last time and i won't this time eitherI know it's petty shit, but I'm feeling so good I wasn't guilted into voting for Biden after Gaza.
Suck it, libs!
Isn't it the incumbent's job to court votes through their actions in office? Seems like his own fault if Biden can't win.
Side note, I'm so fucking tired of this dance every two years.
No it's actually the voters fault if he loses, because it's their responsibility to elect someone who they do not want elected <- Actual current discourse on twitter, libs need to be institutionalised
The party cannot fail the voters, only the voters can fail the party
suit in pfp
Voting. For. Someone. Does. Not. Mean. You. Endorse. Their. Actions.
It. Does. Mean. You. Endorse. The. Things. They. Say. They. Will. Do. That's. How. This. Shit. Works.
if you vote for holden bloodfeast after he says "vote for me and i'll bomb Iran" then everyone who's brain hasn't been destroyed by lead poisoning is going to think you want to bomb Iran
or at least that you don't feel strongly about not bombing iran
A different tweet
Just like there's no ethical consumption under capitalism, there is no ethical voting under a two-party imperialist capitalist state. The only thing you can do is choose the least bad option at every opportunity you get. And sometimes that means voting for bad people
There's almost a point there, but at the same time if you constantly defend your voting choice and act like it's extremely important, especially if it's a vote for the president, then something's gone wrong with your ideology.
The best thing to happen to Canadian politics is the Bloc Quebecois. Even in a FPTP system, Quebec achieved regional representation (which is, of course, why Quebec gets disproportionate amounts of government support).
The US lacks that. Canada's democracy is still fucked, but at least smaller parties can survive.
"Genocide Joe" is such a good nickname, it sounds like some anime villain shit
Genocide Jack/Jill!
willy nilly use of scare quotes. it's not purity to reject the death machine, it's having any principles at all.
My favorite bit right now is quoting founding documents at Americans.
That, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.
And what do we know about consent, folks? It’s sure as hell not, “if you don’t say no, you’re consenting”.
Sure is convenient that the genocide being committed by the "better" freak is the one that they aren't directly impacted by.
yeah I fucking will because at least he's funny
EDIT: too ambiguously phrased, deleting
My interpretation of this knee jerk reaction from the libs is that I think both major parties supporting Israel even though they have lost the pr war and canot hide their genocide anymore is confronting libs with the contradiction betwin what they have been told all their lives, that they live in a democracy and all that, and the absence of actual choice, but they don't want to recognize that their "democracy" is a scam so they are coping by saying that it's a moral duty to vote for the "lesser evil".
Stop. Fucking. Writing. Like. This.
Also:
IT. LITERALLY. FUCKING. DOES. AAAAAAAAHHHHH.
that's how adults in the room write when making hard decisions
Man I love UT for making this a thing
What 👏 about 👏 writing 👏 like 👏 this?
Based 👏 as 👏 hell 👏
If I speak like a Sorkin character hard enough, it will surely make up for my total lack of substance!
giving someone political power isn't an endorsement of their political positions, silly!
Only in American can voting be nonpolitical
