No. Desiring not to be governed doesn’t mean you block your ears and pretend you aren’t governed. That’s how you get Trump.

Is that really the state of anarchist thought on Lemmy? Capitalism apologia....

Ok let's address some of your concerns, even tho I am not sure you can read given your comments.

Trump is not a product of people not voting, he is a product of the capitalist system, lack of education and people believing that choosing the right person to lead them will fix things.

Additionally for who else are you gonna vote? For the pride genocide party? The only difference is that they only kill brown children while the republicans kill based on economic lines.

And even allowing that there is a "good" and a "bad" party. The voting process itself can be corrupted, that's why you have only 2 parties is America.

Imo the most destructive thing here is that voting is used as a placebo for illiterate Americans and wester Europeans to divert their desire for change and instead of building something or doing something useful, they are happy to elect the next mass murderer and wait 4 years to see that it didn't work.

I can 200% Confirm @A404@lemmy.dbzer0.com is correct.
We don't claim kibble.
Mia & I have been witnessing em make a populist ass off emself.

Troll or not, I think it's honestly time to stop entertaining em.

I’m obviously going to stop at the ability to read part. I hope you’ve enjoyed typing that. Get that dopamine. You seem unable to hold a single thought in your head for more than a few seconds without screaming. Is there a text Tourette’s

It is not written for you, but as a mark that there are other ways. Only history can show who is right.

Except being right is subjective.
