I haven’t held my nose for a democrat for going on fourteen years and I’m not going to start now.
I’m politically active far beyond voting and have spoken face to face with several representatives. They don’t care or listen.
No amount of voting reform will fix the fundamentally unjust American political system.
I have been doing the work and will continue to do so. Voting for PSL in this election is part of that work.
If you’re reading this, don’t fall for the “oh if only we had star or ranked choice” fiddlefarting around the edges garbage. We live in under a fundamentally unjust political system and especially when both major parties are advocating in support of genocide there is no reasonable argument for performing the calculus required to declare one the lesser evil.
it must be really nice to be privileged enough to have this viewpoint. and all for what? so you can give yourself a nice ethical pat on the back when you help siphon from the dems, and the gop comes after women and minorities? not sure what your background is but damn dude that’s some fucked up shit
Ok I’ve heard all kinds of different reasons someone might be privileged, but doing work on the ground for years and laying the groundwork for real activism rather than whatever the hell you call this terminally online bullshit, is now what you people call privilege?
I’m not white. I’m not straight. I grew up in poverty. I’m not rich. I don’t have a high-paying job. I don’t have college education (yet). So tell me, how am I privileged?!
I saved to buy my crappy car. I saved to buy my crappy bike. And I pay for school, one course at a time (which is why I still don’t have a degree.) I took a job as a janitor so that I could work somewhere with tuition reimbursement. Networked my way up to teacher’s aide. Pay is 10 cents more.
And yet somehow you’re woke-free.
What does that have to with anything about sexuality or being privileged?!
You know, just because someone believes differently than you, doesn’t make them privileged.
I’m a biracial, bisexual, poor dude. Nothing about me is privileged. You make more money than me, I promise. Are you privileged?
No.

This shit is why Occupy died.
Yep, people here call me privileged too.
Um, I’m biracial, bisexual, and barely make above minimum wage. But because I disagree with some on here, I’m “privileged.” lmao
“Debt-free” “Woke-free” (Both according to your profile) You’re privileged as hell dude.
How does that make me “privileged”?

And yet somehow you’re debt-free.

I can’t connect the dots for you, but geeze.

I’m with you, friend. Stay strong and don’t let this community bully you into changing yourself! I support you!
