The discourse on American politics sometimes devolves to “Leftists who won’t vote” & “MAGA Republicans” teaming up to “getting revenge on liberals”.

I’m much less concerned about the hostility of those who openly demand genocide than the inaction of those who merely pretend to oppose it.
The worst thing I could wish for you as a person, is that this comment follows you around for the rest of your life.
The complaint is about duplicity, not an acceptance or exoneration of those who openly agitate for it.
An ‘ally’ who goes along to get along, but has a radically different value set is not an ally. “9 people sit a a table with a Nazi and say nothing - how many Nazis are at the table?” We decry the Russians who don’t speak out against Putin, but shuffle uncomfortably when the DNC’s top candidate is pursuing a path that enables atrocities?
It’s a bullshit complaint for many reasons, but one of them is that they already stated that they won’t participate in an easy activity to help mitigate genocide.
You misspelled “prolong”.
When trans kids are being shoved into meat grinders I’ll let them know that it’s okay because you mastered the peak of internet wit.
I’m trans. My entire childhood and most of my adulthood was spent in a Texas meat grinder.
I tell you what, you hang around here and wait six months to vote against the meat grinders and I’ll go back to doing something useful like helping people move from red states to sanctuary cities.
I’m glad that you’re taking direct action and using your time to affect positive change. With that said, voting in Texas is particularly important, since the GOP’s margin in the state has been thinning every year. Furthermore, if Trump gets elected, there’s a decent chance that sanctuary cities could cease to be, and so I again encourage you to vote; it doesn’t take very long and can make a literal world of difference. At the very least, you should stop discouraging other people from voting, because that runs counter to our shared stated goal, and is apparently wasting your precious time.
