    If somebody tells you voting is pointless, they are voting for somebody you wouldn’t vote for.

      I don’t really think that’s the case. If you live in an exceptionally partisan area then there’s little impact to voting.

      Congratulations on four more years of a milktoast centrist liberal, is he going to acturally fix the problems? Or is he going to be like Biden and make the big talk of peace and prosperity while sending weapons to fund genocide?

        I have the feeling that you would be inclined to deny the distinction between the Biden presidency and the trump presidency that followed it.

          Fundamentally Trump would not have gotten anywhere without decades of milqtoast ineffective liberals and corrupt milquetoast politicans, the Democrats are at direct fault for this. They built the conditions where people demanded something new and they gave them more of the same. They fought the left viciously while giving up the fight against fascism.

            Are you in any way able to criticise Trump or the Republican party directly, or for you is public enemy number 1 the Democratic Party?

              People dont hold the Republicans to any real standard because we all agree they’re just cartoonishly evil. Democrats can be critiqued because they have an actural ideology that can be pinned down (which I very strongly disagree with). Republicans meanwhile don’t really belive in anything of substance, they sorta just hate people and blindly eat up corporate propaganda (hell they call themselves conservatives yet their definition of conservative values are basically defined exclusively as whatever the hell Reagan did)

                  Better is a strange choice of words here, better compared to what? Better compared to Republicans? Better compared to the Social Democratic parties of Canada and Europe? Or better compared to a real workers party? Because so far it seems like you have done nothing but attempt to twist my words to make up your own preconceived conclusions about leftists that has very little basis in reality.

          Ahh, here’s the tankie…

          You’re responsible for Donald Trump getting elected because you just focused on attacking democrats relentlessly then foolishly claimed that voting is “pointless”

          Get out of here with your authoritarian tendencies.

            trump? i’m not even from the us, posting in a tiny ass forum.

            i like how tankies are simultaneously evil and powerful to influence an election, while at the same time a puny 1% minority that does nothing. libs have to learn more before theorizing.
