    'No no no, if there isn’t a literally perfect party or candidate in the US, you can’t vote for them."

    It is pretty crazy that Centrist Democrats are willing to give power to Maga Fascists if it prevents the Progressive wing from gaining power. Smug Centrists like Haley Stevens are out there right now trying to tank the chances of Progressive Candidates like Abdul El-Sayed just because they want to protect the interests of Isreal. It is pretty hypocritical of the centrists to start becoming non-voters after incorrectly blaming progressives of doing it.

      They’re controlled opposition. Their only job is to make sure the real left never rises.

    If you’re unwilling to commit tax crimes to keep your money out of government hands, but still refuse to vote against some of the worst people in living memory, you are the problem.

    resulting consequences of my inaction

    Demagogues and activists have VASTLY definitions to these, and that fact that solely voting for the 61th midterm shows how inactive amekkkants are.

    Jenny is politically active. But I am talking about ⅔ of the politically inactive demos. Spain, France, Indonesia, Myanmar, Thailand, & Yemen are showing how political action looks like. Yet kkkants still play FPtP ballot as their only political act.

      This user is exactly what this comic is about. Like kily I already had them labeled as “bullshit spewer” I would suggest everyone do the same to save themselves some time when looking at who to downvote
