It seems that people like being in crisis, rather than having stability. (lemmy.world)

those suffering under the neo-colonial regime of the US are proud of you.

I wouldn't expect the victims of genocide to be proud of people for voting for either genocidal candidate. It's fairly offensive that someone with your callousness and privilege would even speak for them.

it amazes me the lengths people go to justify increasing the amount of suffering they are allowing to occur based on “principles”.

Yes, you are enabling endless violence by your support for these disgusting politicians and their racist, patriarchial empire. Your principles are bad actually.

It's not callous to acknowledge that your choice will and already has lead to greater suffering, suffering that I have to watch my family and friends go through. You call me callous but didn't even try to stop, and you're hiding behind systemic problems to not have to acknowledge that.

So with all due respect, kindly go fuck yourself.

Yes, you are enabling endless violence by your support for these disgusting politicians and their racist, patriarchial empire. Your principles are bad actually.

And you're accelerating that through your principles, so they're still worse than mine.

Like it or not, sitting out is not helpful to your cause. But keep telling yourself what you have to do you can sleep at night.

Goodbye, and I will not read any additional replies.

They wouldn't be enabling shit because the idea that simply not turning out for the election would end the violence is completely and utterly delusional.
