    I voted for them for tactical purposes. Both because at the time I cared about the well being of my fellow human beings and I care about my own well being. These days I’m not so sure I care about humans or even myself. I’m still grappling with the point of it all now that we’re doomed.

    I understand that tactics aren’t likely your strong suit, so let me make it clear: I do not have to love the democrats as a party to vote for them. I just have to have a basic grip on reality that it was either them or fascism. Because its first past the post we are dealing with.

        You either don’t understand what tactics mean or you have some really Pepe Silvia shit to share with me.

              Well there’s the same amount of genocide. But yes, we agree, and that means voting this way was a tactical and strategic failure.

            Ah yes, because giving Trump the win instead has ended genocide and improved the lives of millions

              I am saying that objectively looking at the outcome of the election means that running and supporting a pro genocide campaign was a tactical and strategic failure. You shouldn’t do that in the future.

      it was either them or fascism

      Who do you think helped prop up and build the foundations for fascism? That’s what your tactics resulted in.
