Does Trump have fascist magic that makes the bipartisan bombs stronger? Does Kamala have neoliberal magic that makes the bipartisan bombs weaker? Neither will be worse than the other for Palestine.

Even if it were the case that both were exactly identical, then you'd have to admit that your vote won't matter for Palestine, and you should base it on other factors, so why don't you tell me which of Trump's policies you're okay with having in exchange for the opportunity to take the idealistic stance in this election?

We can sit here and quote conflicting sources at each other all night, and it's clear that neither of us is going to sway the other, so we probably should just shake hands and agree to disagree, but fuck it, I'm not doing anything else, so I'll start. Here's one. Okay, your turn.

My point is that if the only thing you care about is not electing a Republican, the ratchet effect will mean the DNC will eventually become so right wing they commit genocide. Oh, shit...

Where along the DNC's journey to the right do you hop off? Is it never? When do you hop off the electoral trend and join the Revolutionary trend?

And what is this revolutionary trend doing? Is there a plan? Because "let's get Trump elected and hope for the best" really isn't a great pitch

There are multiple revolutionary parties you can join, if you want to. They all have mission statements, and none of them are "let's get Trump elected and hope for the best."

[-] rothaine@lemm.ee 1 points 4 days ago

Ok. Which is yours? What's your pitch?

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 days ago

I recommend looking into the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) as well as Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO), I've linked their programs. They operate differently, but have national presense. There are local orgs you can join as well.
