    say it with me:

    abstaining from voting is not the same as voting for republican

    voting a third party is not the same as voting for republican

    the democrats never had my vote in the first place because they dont care about me and want me to die. well and also because im not american, but you know.

      They don’t care. Their whole world view is based on them being the “good people.” That’s why they never have to reevaluate their positions, and believe that they “can’t fail, the can only be failed.”

      I used to like/tolerate some of my city-level Dems for some half-decent stuff they did with the schools and infrastructure, but then they started saying bombing hospitals was self defense and even they lost me.

        I’m glad to see that people on hexbear talk less about supporting local democrats these days. I used to be involved in local politics, and the local democrats are just as shitty as the state and national ones.
