Do you not understand that this topic includes democratic politicians straight up being collaborators, and how that might be relevant to the argument you're trying to make?
The immediate alternative was still worse.
This is right after the election.The immediate alternative is that democrats don't fucking cave on whether they should take part in genocide, when taking part in that genocide is actually incredibly unpopular with voters.
When do you plan on actually contributing to an alternative?
Seriously, what concrete things need to happen before you're like "a better world is worth taking risks for"?
You said:
In the meantime: this is the hole we are in. Act accordingly.
AKA "I'm acting like this reality is inescapable"
And also:
If you could actually fucking do that, I would welcome it with open arms.
AKA "I'd love it if someone were to do the work for me"
As we all know, systemic forces can not be worse than being robbed at gunpoint.
You do understand that fucking holocaust survivors have called this anti-trans push genocidal, right? Democrats who are also pushing it are also pushing extermination.
whenever someone tells you to stop letting outright fascists take power
Read Fascism and Social Revolution by R. Palme Dutt
Read Economy and Class Structure of German Fascism by A Sohn-Rethel
Then tell me that it is possible to keep fascism out of power through voting.
So what are you doing right now to fight fascism? If the answer doesn't include being active in a socialist organization, the only people that historically have been effective at opposing fascism, then the answer is effectively "diddly-squat", and you should get your ass in gear.
Someone saying "your access to lifesaving medication or your life" is functionally the same thing as them saying "your life (slow) or your life (fast)"
So your solution to getting out of the hole is to pretend like the hole is inescapable until someone else does the work? Isn't that kind of cowardly?
Do you conceive of your entire political reality as waiting anxiously who to vote for in November? Do you not see any political action you can take outside of elections that are ultimately owned by the capitalist class?
"But I'm being oppressed under democrats"
"We will let the other guy torture you if you do not comply(well actually it entirely depends on what white cishet people vote for), and our core base will say you deserved it for not voting hard enough."
The adults in the room like you rely on complicated concepts, like philosophical problems that they interpret shallowly and put in meme format
Meanwhile us goofballs actually see a horizon beyond alternating which boot will stomp on us for the rest of eternity.
Okay, so are you not able to or not willing to answer the question of "what has to happen for you to start giving a shit?"
