No matter how you are going to vote, your next president will be a “genocide supporter”.

Canvassing my block with this message to really juice the turn out

Be sure to let your block know that Trump’s Genocide™ comes with a side of anti-LGBTQ+ laws. More restrictive laws for abortion, and a neat little thing called Project 2025

Sadly, the Biden administration has done nothing to halt the deluge of anti-LGBTQ+ laws sweeping the nation at the state and local level.

Project 2025 is already being rolled out. And we've seen Democrats willing to compromise on chunks of it (the TikTok ban jammed through the House as a condition of Ukraine military funding) even from the majority. As disenfranchisement rates surge in purple-red states, we're going to see Republicans grow bolder and Democrats more desperate to appeal to the shrinking pool of centrist voters.

So…. To fight this, your suggestion is….. to do nothing. Got it!

Brilliant plan! Let’s call everyone with this new idea to fix problems! I’m sure the AMA would love to know that cancer can be cured by simply doing nothing about it!

Woooo! Utopia here we come!

Honestly, doing nothing by way of a General Strike would have a much more powerful impact on the political system than watching the poll results roll in from your gerrymandered district and disenfranchised neighborhood.

I wish more people would consider Walks-Outs, Sick-Outs, and Administrative Lock-Outs as tools of political change.

Hilarious. Thanks for the laugh. I needed that today.

Add full context.

"But Trump Worse!"

[–] Prandom_returns@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

I think that'll work. Any more complex than that and you'll lose them.

That’s funny… I’ve seen MAGA use the exact same argument.
