It’s just annoying that there’s no real leftists to vote for in a country where we let money control elections (cf. Citizens United decision). I might have a “vote” but it doesn’t feel like I get any say when the election is between bourgeois parties.
Obviously not voting and voting for the actual fascists are bad options, but just voting for the liberals isn’t great either. What do y’all think?

Because it is. You liberals might be able to browbeat folk into wasting their time at the polls, but it won’t earn you my actual vote ‘til democrats stop talking out the side of their collective neck and start actually putting an end to the manifold injustices in this country. And since Hell will freeze over before democrats pop their lips off the lobbyists’ collective titty, I guess that means I get to watch this country crumble in my lifetime. The feedback loops have already started.

And yours was to throw a tantrum about it because your sports team isn’t getting the support you feel they deserve? Fuckin lol. Your party still cosigns murderous cops, I don’t have a reason to want to see your party or your country perpetuate-- and I don’t think you can conjure one up.

Rank idealism tbh.
Even moderate social democrats like Bernie Sanders are not allowed to run for president. For the crime of running on the platform of single payer healthcare system he was ratfucked by DNC. Any “real leftist” does not stand a chance in this system.
When asked what a real leftist is, you’d probably just say Bernie Sanders… Real leftism is when you bomb Yugoslavia it seems. The “international community” counts Bernie as one of its senior members 🤡
‘Real leftism’ is when you foment neo-nazis in Eastern Europe ig lmfao
