Curious, what did republicans do, given they're the alternative. Not voting isn't a protest, it's a scream to be ignored completely.

    So what you're saying "/u/stummies" is that if we didnt vote for Harris in the last election, who was annointed without a primary, who was on stage with a republican talking about her guns and praying, while also saying she wouldnt change any of Joe Bidens policies which were polling underwater even with Dems, whose mega-zionist husband guaranteed that not supporting Israel (antisemitism) needed to have "real consequences"... If you didnt vote for her you dont get to be part of the political process. Is that right? No one buys your diet fascism here. And you're either a simpleton or a republican. Get off our lawn or shut the hell up. Take your pick. But you dont talk to us that way and you dont make any rules or demands of us.

    Luckily for us the Republicans aren't the only alternative, just one of many.

    And which of these many alternatives is going to get more than a single digit percent of the vote?

    "I didn't vote for positive-candidate but rather Blue-Hitler at least as I know he's electable, we got to vote blue no matter who after all!"

    I'm not wrong, that's how you Amerikans react every time. "oh we can't have x, we need to vote the bigoted fascist in the primaries to be able to defeat Trump!" Like with Gavin Newsom. This behaviour is not new.

    Probably not many, because the Democrats fight against the parties that want to stop bombing kids. Maybe if voters like you would stop supporting the child-killers, and start supporting the anti-child-killers, they would start winning.

    "Why would I want to put an egg into boiling water? It's not boiled after one second, so that means the boiling water does nothing. My only option is to eat it raw I guess, too bad. Hey stop trying to cook my food! We all know it doesn't work since the food is not cooked the second it touches the stove!"

    So there's this thing called "planning" and "long term thinking" you might want to try it some day. You know, instead of reactively screeching at the latest symptom of a system in decline, try to create something new. Now this might be shocking to you, but you actually don't get everything immediately as soon as you start, things take time.
