History

@MrSebSin@sh.itjust.works started this community and wrote:

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.

ugh, I've had some success by arguing you should at least deface a ballot. Why assume they'll know you're mad and not lazy. If 10% of people wrote in "fuck all y'all" you might actually get people trying to win over their vote.

"You showed up for the protests didn't you? You didn't just assume they got the message did you?"

But man it's like talking to a wall

Robots that scan ballots don’t give a shit about your scribbles and will just not count the vote.

Then you’re back to accelerationist nonsense

[–] dukeofdummies@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Defaced ballots are counted. Not towards any party but they are recorded.

I'm not saying it's a silver stake, I'm just saying it clears the ever low bar of being better than "not voting at all"

If 10% of people defaced their ballot this would be a international scandal. The 'champions of democracy' have at-scale revolt in their democratic process.

Think J6 but worse in terms of recognition. We are still talking about J6

I think there's more effective ways to show you're angry than throwing your vote away.

[–] dukeofdummies@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

If you truly, truly don't believe either vote makes a difference, doing nothing is still worse.

Anything is better than nothing.
