Reminder that voting for Biden or Trump means you endorse genocide 😎
Not to vote is not an option.
Edit: wouldn't mind to see more Björk memes 😅
We don't have fascism in the US yet. We have a party trying to get into fascist control. Voting can still stymie their attempts to do so and exposing their plans can cause them to lose supporters. Using the legal system to remove those breaking the laws and impeaching justices not upholding the constitution are how you prevent this.
These things are hard. If it was easy to prevent fascists from seizing power, we wouldn't have ever had fascist takeovers. Stopping fascism from taking root requires eternal vigilance as fascist sympathies ebb and flow.
I heartily disagree with the last panels initial premise: both parties don't stand for the same values. They both share values among some of their most prominent members. Namely neoliberal economic policy. But they are clearly not in sync with all policies: hence only one party attempting a fascist takeover. Ignoring the other things Democrats have accomplished that absolutely help people because they aren't the huge sweeping reforms we hoped for is doing the fascists' jobs for them.
These memes also press for Revolution, which is definitely the dumbest thing to propose at this point. Revolution definitely has its place: namely if fascists actually disband democracy. But a revolution is a HUGE risk no matter who does it. Look at revolutions in the rest past, especially those started by popular sentiment: many ended in a totalitarian government, often backed by the military, who took power the moment the leaders faltered. In many of these instances the people didn't win; they just traded one dictator for another. In order for a revolution to succeed, those revolting need to have both coordinated force of arms and a method of government ready to step in and take control to prevent societal collapse.
But revolution also devalues what HAS been achieved by those still working within the system. The most obvious of these in the US are the great strides unions have made in recent years. Unions went from something only a handful of industries had and were largely despised by the general population, to exploding in numerous industries.
Darn you american liberals are getting desperate. This is a fellow kids-level "please vote for the lesser evil" type of meme. But I am not american and have trouble seeing if your argument is a pipedream worthy of a genocide to pursue.
Or you know, actually try to pressure the Dems into running a different candidate when Biden will be a guaranteed loss.
guaranteed loss
How much money did you bet on Biden's "guaranteed loss?"
If you didn't, why do you shun free money?
idk whats worse, having an uncropped reddit watermark or an uncropped ifunny watermark
