          Do you think that you "not voting" is the same as helping disenfranchised black voters ? This isn't a binary issue. Vote for Biden and then lets impeach him for voter suppression. Thats the most optimal strategy for workers rights going forward.

          As workers we don't have a carrot or a stick, we have both. Both tools have value but in different context. Social media uses a network architecture that makes hating something and loving it just as valuable but the real world isn't like that. Positive engagement actually leads to more change. That doesn't mean it'll instantly create a utopia but there are only 3 voting strategies that can have a real world effect this cycle:

          Voting for Biden

          Voting for Trump

          Not Voting

          Lets game it out and see how those different strategies might actually help. I think Biden is just the most practical move.

            I mean i'm literally working with a prison abolitionist group, soi 'm doing more for disenfanchised black people than simply voting. Also nothing disenfranchises people more than to elect someone they don't like and doesn't care about them, or someone who wrote a crime bill who put most of them in prison and literally took away their right to vote. LMFAO did you really just try to use Joe BIDEN as a reason to "help disenfranchised black people" like he didn't fucking cause this problem?

            lets impeach him for voter suppression.

            LMAO this is not going to happen

            [voting ]Thats the most optimal strategy for workers rights going forward
