I'm actually tired of being blackmailed with fascism.
In my country we had maybe five elections in a row where the premise was "it is us or fascism". And yes, fascism is there but... COULD YOU ACTUALLY MAKE THINGS GOOD AND WORK FOR IMPROVING YOUR PEOPLE LIVES!!? I don't want my choice to be die shot down or slowly being impoverished until life is no longer any good. I want to actually have a good life, and enabling "just not fascism (tm)" is not doing it.
voting is pointless, just reinforces ruling class, you are not subject of social change but an object to manipulate with and blackmail with every mean possible
I have some bad news for you if you think the ruling class gives one wet fart whether or not people vote.
“Not voting” doesn’t matter to a corrupt politician, they don’t care if you stay home. There will never be a voter turnout so low that the ruling class will go “oh shucks, they all stopped voting I guess we have to give up our wealth and power now.”
Voting is not the solution to the problems that plague our society, but just like how putting out a wildfire doesn’t solve climate change, you still put the fire out before it burns a bunch of shit down.
You don't put the fire out by voting, you put the fire out with guillotines.
As that one fucking taco commercial put it: ¿Por qué no los dos?
If people win on that type of rhetoric, it means the fascists are part of the electoral strategy, meaning it's not in their interests for the fascists to go away, because how will they win votes then?
