      Stop gaslighting people. They said it’s time to march and protest and you still accuse them as if they’re participating in the system. We want both of them out. This is how movements for change start.

        Reality check: one of them is going to be elected president in November. Your wants will not change that.

          I won’t accept that, and will march and protest loudly to try to stop it.

          What are you gonna do, sick the cops on me to protect the establishment bastards?

            Continue to shame you for ignoring reality and advocating for Worse to spite Bad.

              Classic lib take - attack the voters, because the current admin’s terrible policies are clearly their fault.

              Repugs and Dems aren’t the only candidates on the ballot, and thankfully I can vote for someone who has policy positions much more aligned with my interests. Perhaps you can too, think about it. Or vote for more genocide, it’s your choice.

                They are the only candidates that will win under FPTP

                Yup, you can virtue signal all you like. That’s freedom, baby!

                Or vote for more genocide, it’s your choice.

                Nah, I’ll stick to advocating against genocide++

                  I’ve seen a lot of your comments around, preaching the truth about FPTP, and they are often downvoted into the negatives. But you persist.

                  I just want to commend you and say that you have more patience than I do. Keep up the good work.

      Yup, this commerad (the one you’re responding to) is 100% okay with fascism it seems.

      Better to allow the group that locks up protestors, doesn’t convict anti fascist murderers, kills minorities, and actively surpresses the ability to vote, than vote for “the lesser of 2 evils”. I’m not saying they’re Russian, or Republican, but they’re saying the same things as those groups.

        Currently the Biden administration is locking up protesters, not convicting FASCIST murderers, killing minorities, and suppressing the ability to vote, all right now. If you want to continue with the liberal policy of pretending everything’s okay go ahead, but don’t give us shit for trying to do something about it, sit down and shut up King.
