Get to the point (I'm waiting for a accusation of being a russian troll account, if that's what you're getting at)
You didn’t answer my question and I didn’t accuse you of being a Russian troll.
You didn’t answer my question
I'd like you to get to the point of why you're asking me these questions.
I didn’t accuse you of being a Russian troll.
I didn't claim you were. Just uttering a hunch of what I thought you were planning.
If you’re unwilling to let me know if you’re living in the US or not there’s no point to continue this conversation.
🙄 No, I'm not. Now get to the bloody point.
Democracy is messy. But why would you want to tear it all down when it's on an uptick?
It is Biden's last term so there's going to be a new nominee next time.
Why would you want to let the Republicans declare open season on woman's/queer/tran's rights?
Because that's the choice right now, Trump or Biden.
Third party is not a viable option.
Why did you ask me whether I come from the so-called US? O.o
I'm an anarchist and donwt consider the way that the so-called US is organized a democracy (as in: political power is in the hands of the people), but rather a plutocracy.
The system in the US is especially tupid, because of the two-party system, but especially the way it is right now, no significant progressive change which actually benefits the working class. You'll see this if Biden wins and then (once again) blabbers on about rwaching across the aisle, while the fascists continue their project. No matter who is president.
Elections are useless in the best case and distracting from mass movements in the worst case.
Why would you want to let the Republicans declare open season on woman’s/queer/tran’s rights and lives?
Are real human rights and lives that worthless to you?

Open your eyes. Your scenario is already happening. Don't trust the state in securing these rights, but rather the community.
Are real human rights and lives that worthless to you?
To the contrary. I just don't believe that a state which is constantly this close to sliding into fascism is a trustworthy to adhere to human rights.
Now let's circle back to my original point, what are you discouraging people from voting in a country you don't even live in?
Why not work on your own issues in the (I'm guessing here) UK?
Not that it really matters exactly which country, every one on this planet has issues right now.
what are you discouraging people from voting in a country you don't even live in?
I'm quoting myself here:
I would really like not having to deal with the politics of the so-called "US" so much. I would gladly not bother if you yankees would stop playing world police and affecting the rest of the world so much with your failed state.
Why not work on your own issues in the (I'm guessing here) UK?
You guessed wrong, but: why not both?
