I sure do love being forced to vote for a capitalist christian in every goddamn election.

Sure makes me feel like I fucking belong here.

Have you ever been involved in the candidate selection process?

[-] Halasham@dormi.zone 6 points 5 months ago

When was the last time we had non-Capitalist or non-Christian as options on any level of the selection process? In the two-party duopoly we've had... Vivek Ramaswami with the ~~American Fascist~~ Republican Party for non-Christian and then the closest we've got to non-Capitalist being Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Bernie Sander's Social Democracy (which Sanders mislabels as Democratic Socialism).

Oh so I just need to be a lackey for the dems for thirty years and then I can con my way into a being a superdelegate and have some say in who I elect.

And then when I pick the atheist anarchist I get told they're unelectable.

Better and worse are options.

Not everything is a binary "best or worst" choice.

[-] Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social 2 points 5 months ago

Our options are "less worse" and "more worse." We don't get to vote for better.
