I can't. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 0 points 2 years ago (2 children) I cannot because I'm (fortunately) not a US citizen. If you are and you don't vote, it's a vote for Trump. If you want Trump to win because you think things will somehow get better after he brings down the system, you're delusional. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] wildcherry@slrpnk.net 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) It's not specific to the US. It's a matter of having a tiny bit of political culture. Liberals and fascists needs each other. The first needs the last as a scapegoat and the later feeds off poverty and frustration created by neoliberal corporatism. So no I won't be blackmailed into voting for white-wingers. People voting for fascists are the only responsible for fascism. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] drewaustin@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago A-fucking-men permalink fedilink source parent
