    There is a time and place for when to do activism voting and when the the stakes are too high, you have to set aside your pride. If voters could keep the republicans out, we could start replacing the democrats with real progressives. Right not, democrats represent the lesser of two evils and when the greater evil wants to create concentration camps, it’s immoral not to vote for the lesser.

      that lesser evil is doing nothing to prevent concentration camps and democrats are working to ensure that progressives are shut out. giving the democrats your support is not only not achieving these goals, it’s actively working against them; so a different strategy is needed.

        Giving the democrats support right before the election was the only thing we could do. Right now, we have time to regroup and get new blood elected. We can do activism voting right now, but if you didn’t vote for Harris just to keep Trump out, you need to confront the fact that what were seeing right now is partially your fault.
