I have problems with people who abstained. The hard thing is, how do you change voter behavior?

    In the end you’re both still the ones committing genocide. Not the people who didn’t vote for it (not voting is a vote)

    Stop trying to make this delusional talking point happen. Typical shitlib manipulation

    Ps you don’t even live in a democracy…. Shitlibs did more to organize state violence against college kids protesting than they are doing to resist fascism. Thats why you fuckin lost and will always be losers and will take all of us down with you

      Your downvote tears sustain me, not going to weasel your way out of being complicit in genocide. You went out of your way to consent to the corrupt state, and you refuse to tear it down. Everything that happens is your responsibility, regardless of which of your functionary parties are ruling. They all do the same thing and are on the same teamgame which is to perpetuate empire, capital accumulation and colonialism, only difference is strategy.

            It’s a fundemental aspect of the medium, though. A bit of a stretch to call people cowards for interacting in the way the platform was designed around.

              Reading comprehension is not your strong suit i take it….

              Solely ‘downvoting’ with no expressed reasoning besides presumably being butthurt and as one person said ‘because it’s presented wrong’ is coward like. It was designed around comments, the vote system is one aspect and the least important one that, i don’t think you know what ‘fundamental’ means.

                  Sensitive? It was a passing remark used to segway into the actual point lol however, you can’t seem to get over it

                    I confess, I shouldn’t have used the less common meaning. “[…] why are you so aware of it?” would have been a more accessible phrasing. Why is it important to you?

          Uhhh yeah…. We all are in more indirect ways, like in taxes and the products we support and use, which makes this look even more absurd to try and pass yourself off as innocent. Though some are more complicit than others…Some like to double down on it

        The only tears here are from rolling our eyes too hard. You’re being downvoted not based on the merit of the arguments you bring, but on how you present them.

            Why would someone choose to interact with you to discuss the issue, rather than the dozens of folks in here saying the same thing but in a less tedious way? You bring nothing novel except perplexingly bad bait. Thats the whole point here.

                It is beautiful that you insta downvoted my response here. True chef’s kiss moment.

                Seriously though, if you can’t recognize a rhetorical question why do you feel that your opinions on geopolitics are worth engaging with?

                    Err… Not not directly for, I admit, but I do work with the state dept on occasion. There’s a whole bunch of us in here, in fact. Decentralized platforms are extremely popular with policy-adjacent techies, I wonder why. But that’s really neither here nor there, because critically I’m not presenting my geopolitical opinions here, but you sure are. And in nearly the same breath you do that, you criticize OP as fodder for the “objectively stupid” but elsewhere reject the very notion of criticism of your own opinions. I don’t exactly need to cite the five canons (I’ll save you the trouble) to highlight the flaws in your behavior here.
