If you are still on this ship after US army killed 150 kids first day of iran war you are scum, you are the terrorist.

get fucked, that’s what you get from using google services

Why not at least vote dem to stop the party actively trying to bring about facism?

You have other non fascist options available as parties that aren’t red and blue.

What you are saying is to make a bunch of numbers illegal

voting for a party is one way to give them momentum

Absolute delusional and moronic take that got us exactly where we are today.

The red and blue party are cycling in power, if there’s anything that got us here is not doing enough to challenge this system.

Why don’t you take a step back, reevaluate your life choices, and rejoin us in reality where neo-liberals aren’t fascists, the fascists are fascists.

Supporting a genocide perpetrated by a racist far-right government it among other things such as spending a trillion in war and spying people with the most dystopian mass surveillance network humanity has ever seen to me scream fascism. If it’s not fascism it’s as much as bad and something we should oppose unless we seek to destroy the world.

If you wanna escape the “lesser of 2 evils” shit, then you and every other young person needs to get off their lazy fucking ass and participate in the Dem primaries. Hong just lost Wisconsin because the younger generation is STILL not showing up in enough numbers to surpass boomers and Gen X.

If you want criminal scum to stop from being elected, encouraging people to vote for them and for their party it’s not how you bring up a change. Younger generations are being brainwashed by the government as much as boomers and every other person.

Until then, stop putting your personal grievances in front of the lives of the millions being massacred by MAGA.

The US government, red and blue administrations cycling in power, has massacred people around the world for decades.

Like it or not, we exist in a 2 party system. A system that, when it comes to the general election, forces us to choose the lesser of 2 evils. Your grievances with that system doesn’t make that system disappear. Its still there, like it or not, and your inaction and/or wrong actions have dire consequences.

Sound like you “need to get off your lazy fucking ass” and try to change this corrupted system for good.

I’ve had enough of these chicken-hawk “leftists” who scream for revolution but sure as fuck would never fight in one. If your ass is refusing to go to the polls to fight fascism, why the fuck should anyone trust you’d pick up a rifle and fight a revolution?

The US government is supporting a genocide where kids are being murdered daily, what are you doing to make it stop HazardousBanjo?

Of a narrative that promotes sharing pictures rather than plain text, shitpost over quality content and reposts instead of original content.

VOTE DEMOCRAT NO MATTER WHO

FAILURE TO DO SO IS SURRENDER TO FASCISM AND THE END OF DEMOCRACY IN THE USA FOREVER

To me arguing to vote for the lesser evil party with such slogans sound exactly surrendering to fascism.

Vote for good candidates and good parties and if your vote doesn’t work fight and boycott the fascists. That’s how you resist fascism

They are also reshaping the internet by not using twitter

if you’re a public figure like trump, the least you can do is muster a bit of empathy.

Public figures have even more reasons not to muster empathy for genocide supporters

This sub is propaganda

How do you ban AI?

ban what? ban AI?

He’s been doing this 70 years and he’s too old to be the guy directing AI.

So why is he getting involved in AI?

go ahead and explain why this person is refusing to spend 2 minutes to create a free account on one of the biggest and most popular alternative to the platform owned by a nazi

Bernie Sanders is a politician, he should tell the public how he plans to add safety mechanisms and safeguards to AI. Granting the government and corporations full authority and control over it while limiting public access is how you turn AI into a digital nuclear weapon.

Yes, but there is a difference in how they delegitimize foreign and domestic left winged groups. They don’t have to pull an operation gladio in the US because the system we utilize for voting already makes it near impossible for 3rd parties to succeed cia electorialism.

That’s what i’m saying, billions and trillions in propaganda spent in the past and being spent now are helping the government holding a tight grip on power. That doesn’t imply that it’s impossible for a different faction to overthrow the current corrupted and criminal ruling class. Each vote is the one that could start a change and it could be yours.

If it was as easy as immigrating it would have already happened by now.

Yes there are plenty of people running for third parties already because it’s quite easy to do, much easier than moving to another country and starting a life there.

The concept of splitting the vote or the spoiler effect is a part of social choice theory. It’s not an invention of the parties or propaganda

I’m not arguing that the propaganda invented such concept, the propaganda it’s using it as an argument to persuade you not to vote for someone that isn’t the party. You are free to vote for whoever you want, if you think and plan to vote for red and then vote a third party instead you have magically split the vote of the republicans.

The parties do know about it and take advantage of it, but usually by supporting spoiler campaigns to split the vote of their opponents.

If it’s impossible for a third party to win like you say it would be really poor propaganda for red and blue to encourage their detractors to vote for a party that nobody believes can win. A third party becoming popular would attract votes from both red and blue and damage both parties, red and blue have more to gain by encouraging the public to keep voting for them rather than promoting parties that could become a threat for the government.

oh this could be the reason why she doesn’t want to spend 2 minutes to create a mastodon account and would rather keep using the platform owned by a nazi instead, she doesn’t like the punk kids on the fediverse.

Don’t get surprised when this person starts advocating for shit, the warnings are all here.

You’re conflating national and foreign policy…

US delegitimization of left wing parties, socialism and communism happened and is happening both on national and foreign ground

Yes it does… I’ve already given evidence supporting my argument. You have failed to give any evidence to support yours.

It doesn’t, the evidence is that in a democratic election any party can win

And the Democrats who have already gone against the party line?

I’ve yet to see someone from the democrat party going against the line of using a platform owned by a nazi.

Lol, avoiding the question again? Why can you answer here? The reason you don’t move is the same reason candidates don’t move to another party. Because it’s hard, and because you don’t really blame yourself for the actions of others, and because you hope you can influence people to change.

You are arguing that running with a different political party is as much hard as moving to a different country that doesn’t support israel, i can only conclude that you are arguing in bad faith.

Again, you really don’t understand the concept of splitting the vote. Which is ironic considering how often you accuse people of falling for propaganda.

exercising your right to vote does not equal in splitting the vote, stop spreading the party propaganda.

Operation gladio was against an entirely different nation state, not two political parties competing against a third. This is a ridiculous comparison.

“According to several Western European researchers, the operation involved the use of assassination, psychological warfare, and false flag operations to delegitimize left-wing parties in Western European”

It’s not a comparison it’s the history of our countries.

I’m comparing a choice of affiliation. Progressive candidates could leave the democratic party for a third party, but it would prevent their ability to win office.

Not paying taxes gets you in jail and in legal troubles, always. Running for a different party does not prevent your ability to win, that’s your assumption rooted in the propaganda that no third party can ever win. Associating yourself with evil to boost your ability to win power sounds like opportunistic bullshit to me, especially when you are running for a position where you are supposed to be trusted by everyone else.

Lol, so you are admitting that Abdul is an anti Israel anti fascist candidate of the Democratic party? You do realize he won the primary as a Democrat, right?

People can claim whatever they want, if their actions align with these of a fascist party they are not much anti fascist at all. What is this anti fascist guy doing on the private platform of a nazi? If israel spent millions against him that’s good evidence that the guy may be against them but let’s not forget how much many of these “progressive” and “good” candidates are aligned with power.

Again… Dodging the question. Why not simply choose to end your affiliations with the countries doing that genocide?

That’s a good question for everyone to answer, if you open a thread on asklemmy i’ll gladly provide the best answer i could provide, there is a lot to say on this issue

Splitting the vot in a close election between a progressive Democrat and a fascist is supporting evil.

“not voting for the red and blue party is supporting evil”

not exactly, i would argue that voting for someone evil is supporting evil, voting for someone good is doing good.
