    To remind people that their actions have consequences and that they need to take an active role in the democratic process if they want to preserve it.

        The “both sides” argument is one of the fascists’ favorite ways to inspire voter apathy, maybe take a second to think about harm reduction instead of focusing only on your own moral superiority.

        Also, I’m not American, I have never voted in a US election.

          You’re not american but you’re from a country that funded the genocide so why should I care about your opinion? You’re biased

          The “both side” argument is perclfectly valid when both side support a genocide. Saying otherwise is denialism

      Yup, and the whole “she wasn’t a squeaky clean and perfect candidate for me so I couldn’t vote for her in good conscience” sounds like such a fucking dumb argument in the face of what we’ve seen the other guy has done/will do.

      And to the user you replied to: yes, it doesn’t do anything to change reality, but points like this should be noted so hopefully people learn. You vote so a piece of shit like Mango Mussolini doesn’t get to power and dismantle the U.S. government.

      P.S. I proudly voted for Kamala Harris
