It definitely isn’t the only time I care about third parties. Continued direct action in the community is the most important way to affect change. The election is just a useful event for publicity and gaining support for groups.
There’s 0% chance my comment is going to convince enough people this election cycle that it effects a non swing states election. It’s about slowly building support for groups.
I'm with you. I'm all about building support. Just as long as people understand there's a time and place for it.
People have said that for 40 years. It's always the right time to do the right thing.
Eta and for 40 years things have gotten worse for everyone but fat international corporate conglomerates and VERY wealthy people. The time is now.
And for 40 years voting in your local elections has changed things. That's when you vote for change. If you think the presidential election is the time to vote differently you're not paying attention, plain and simple.
Yes, as I said elsewhere itt ,things have gotten alarmingly worse.
No, what you said was people have been saying the same thing for 40 years, and implied it doesn't make a difference.
That is false.
Do you know what "elsewhere" means? Okay, I may not have used the word "alarmingly."
Your not even American. Fuck off with your bullshit.
lol
Georgia surprised us before, maybe they will again.
