    We’re not in a democracy, we’re in a capitalist duopoly, get with it and stop acting like a fucking child because the world doesn’t give you ideal options. Your choices are shit sandwich and bigger shit sandwich, if you refuse to choose then you will be force fed the bigger shit sandwich. There is no getting what you want out of the situation, there is literally no such thing as a club sandwich, it doesn’t exist, but you can make an attempt at not being force fed the larger pile of shit and bread.

      Man you really are close. Unless you like the capitalist duopoly (which really they are two parties of capital so its hardly even a duopoly) then surely you must also understand from your vast studies that engaging with the lesser of two evils narrative is precisely how capital has been able to accrue more and more power over the systems that be. Every election cycle the Dems just move further right towards the Republicans and then y’all vote for them and wonder why shit sucks!

      I dont subscribe to your defeatist attitude that allows you to justify inaction and shitty politics of individuality. Grow up and read some books.

        That’s all entirely erroneous. Ignoring the reality of things for an idealist fantasy doesn’t make you morally superior, it makes you a tool.

        What you call defeatism I call pragmatism and situational understanding. You’re demanding that perfection get in the way of progress or damage control, you’re not progressive, you’re exactly what the powers that be want you to be, absolutely fucking useless and ineffectual. You’re a dog of the state, they said roll over and you did exactly that.

          What’s erroneous? Praytell explain to me how capitalism works or something. This should be good I’ll go get popcorn.

            I’m not advocating for the system to be what it is, I simply understand what it is, you obviously don’t and keep projecting what you’d like things to be. Stop being a useless idealist and examine the real world for what it is and how it’s actually functioning. This is not the time for dreams.
