This is precisely the kind of apathy to civic duty that won 4 more years of Trump (but this time with house, Senate and a stacked Scotus!).

The thing with voting rights is you have to use it or you lose it. Pray you don’t lose it between now and the next one.

Lol, “civic duty”.

I’m not even American, homie. And believe me: even a less underdeveloped democratic system than the US won’t save us from fascism. Direct action and organizing will.

Nothing I said assumed you were American. Your philosophy on voting led to Americans not voting and the situation they face right now (which effects other countries too, you know!)

Furthermore, no one here believes you give half a shit about direct action and organising because if you can’t even motivate yourself to get off the couch and write on a piece of paper once every 3-4 years then there’s no way you’re doing anything meaningful the rest of the time besides spreading apathy on online echo chambers.

Voting lets us pick a weaker enemy.
