man. i dont think any of this would be happening if people weren’t fucking lazy and just voted in November. like god damn who cares if the line is long for one night.
People don’t know how to participate in a democracy, it’s ridiculous.
If millions upon millions of people in your country want to vote far right, you’re not going to get Bernie, you have to compromise. You pick the one that has the most likelihood of pulling your country in the direction you want, because the alternative is that you don’t get anything at all. You can’t be entitled, because you have to share your country with 350 million other people. Fucking compromise or get fascism.
There are numerous ideological and philosophical frameworks that attempt to explain how fascism takes rise, so why do you just blame it on laziness?
Did Hitler come to power because of German industrialization, German embarrassment from WWI, the great depression, and other global economic hardships, or did Hitler come to power simply because Germans were lazy and didn’t vote?
Our turn towards fascism was inevitable, and it can be explained better than with some nebulous concept of “laziness”.
At the very minimum, start asking yourself why Americans are not enthusiastic about voting.
Lots of things can give rise to fascism, but when people stay at home they give it a free pass to take control. We had the easiest chance of hitting the brakes.
Voting is EASY.
All we had to do was vote. If trump doesn’t leave then it’s going to cost lives to change. Damn fool to think otherwise.
That happens every single election. How about, instead of attacking people who are rightfully unconvinced this system works, you attack the people actually doing the fascism.
You’re like a fuckin’ Russian bot, only helping to divide. Fuckin’ dumbass democrats, man. This is why you lose.
I think, not voting, is the wrong way of expressing not being convinced of the system.
I think the better approach would be vote, but try to spread the word why you’re inconvenienced, try to force government to be more transparent, sue politicians that do corrupt stuff, organise demonstrations and strike with precise demands like improve transparency of politics, found only trustworthy journalism, fact check anything and add sources to information/misinformation, track sources truthness not by 0 and 1 but between 0% and 100%, teach empathy to anybody, make music, talk to many people
But i am lucky, as my people before me have done that already, well, still hard job to maintain…

Because laziness gave it the win.

Doesn’t that moreso snooze fascism instead of stopping it?
We’ll never know for sure in this case. It’s still a 4 year reprieve, and trump could have died in those four years.
Why were people lazy?
They purged voter roll, but only for democrats.
Technically legal.
