I appreciate this. I wanted to add this to my wall of text but it was getting too long already. I don’t think this is an overall productive area of discussion right now though, I was too hostile, the lib is getting very heated, naturally as this is a very personal issue for them(Not blaming them at all, I’d probably be pissed too if I was in their shoes), so I think a bit of a cooling off period might be a good idea, give them a chance to touch grass and hopefully realise we are on the same side as them, and ultimately want the same things as them (safety for marginalised groups) but Biden will not be giving that to them.
So…voting in an electoral system isn’t showing tacit or passive approval, or at least tolerance, of that system? I guess it’s just a natural thing, like breathing air, something never to be questioned or challenged, perfectly normal and natural to be forced to choose between the slow death or the fast death of millions.
You accused me of ignoring your question earlier, but haven’t actually responded to any of mine. It’s Germany 1937, and you’re telling me that Göring isn’t perfect, but he’s the best Nazi we’ve got, instead of just opposing the entire system for its inhumanity. Voting will not save your loved ones. Complacency is how things have gotten to this point, and voting is just showing how complacent you really are, as far as the bourgeoisie are concerned.
Sorry for being so insulting, I don’t blame you for getting mad, this is clearly a very personal thing for you and I was quite tactless in talking to you. I think it’s best if we stop this conversation here, it will just be going in circles after this. Feel free to get the last clever word in, as I’m not planning to respond beyond this, so when I don’t respond, imagine that I’m just so “owned” by your clever defense of bourgeoisie electoralism that I’m going to move to the states and get US citizenship just so I can vote for Biden in this next election. I hope things work out well for you and your partner.
