    Holy shit, so many words just to cope that you got owned. Yikes.

    Name another “aspect of treatment” from within your delirious worldview, if voting for the lesser evil is just one aspect. I dare you to elaborate.

    More significant progress requires alternative methods.

    Like what?! You’re so close to reality, yet so far away.

      What are you, 12? Why would I be “owned” by a fundamental misunderstanding of electoral mechanisms?

      Name another “aspect of treatment”

      • Promoting progressive candidates in primaries

      • Writing your representatives directly

      • Becoming active in local politics

      • Protesting

      • Arming yourself

      • Building community and mutual aid with your neighbors

      • Unionizing your workplace

      • Collaborating with leftist groups to coordinate action

      And that’s off the top of my head. None of those actions are lessened in any way by voting for whatever the Dems put out in the general election, to keep MAGA out. Any other electoral action perpetuates the acceleration of fascism. We’ve got concentration camps and military in the streets, continuing to pretend that “both sides” are identical is just patently unserious if not deliberately in bad faith.

      Your turn. Answer the question: What alternative action is available at the ballot box that yields a better outcome? I think you keep dodging the question because you know you don’t have an answer. You’re either a shill, or a kid hypnotized by counterproductive idealism.

        I asked you for an example of something that will enact change besides voting and you cough up a listed headed by “get people to vote” and “become politically active (by voting)”. Alarmingly-low levels of awareness.

        Buy a gun? For what? Connect the dots for us: how can gun ownership be an aspect of treatment? What’s the gun treating?

        Talking to liberals about electorate politics is so disturbing. A boot could be on your neck and you’d still pledge allegiance to capitalism and its myriad apparatuses as the One True Way.

          Why am I not surprised that someone who believes it’s impossible to do two different things is incapable of reading past the first element of a list. Honestly, you’re being deliberately stupid at this point. Maybe seek mentorship from someone who had the brainpower to walk and chew gum at the same time.

          Again, not liberal, just not stupid. Work on your reading comprehension and critical thinking skills, then your opinion might hold non-zero value.

          And you still haven’t answered the question. Are you too dumb to come up with an answer, or are you a shill?

              And again, still unable to answer the question. You’re now tagged as “Fascist’s Little Helper”. I don’t have time for fascists or their useful idiots

                A liberal is calling a communist a fascist!

                It’s not very effective.

                What’s the gun for? Are you really throwing in the towel after I pressed you on your own idea?! Jfc.

                  I asked you a question, you ignored it and asked me a question.

                  I answered that question and asked you the first question again, you ignored it.

                  I asked you a third time, you deflected.

                  You’re in debt here, and you still can’t answer the question.

                  I don’t have time for fascists or their useful idiots.

                    Why would a good little voting liberal like yourself need a gun? How is that an aspect of treatment?

                    I mean, if I were in your shoes, I’d probably walk that one back before proceeding. You know, because I’d be embarrassed.

                    What’s the gun for, bossman?
