    I'm sorry fighting is hard.

    It is harder than voting for diet fascism and shitting on people that aren't insulated and privileged lanyard-wearing smug computer touchers like yourself.

      This thread has been a fascinating look into the mind of a vote evangelist.

      Since they can only ever conceptualise change occuring via electoralism they seem to see not voting as therefore not doing anything.

      Like, the only way to change the world is by voting for the lesser of two evils and hoping that maybe they might possibly do a watered down version of what you want.

      Fucking bleak, no wonder fake edgy pop-nihilism is so popular among liberals.

        If you seriously haven't heard the slang before, there's a difference between touching a computer and being a computer toucher in much the say way that most people play video games but only some are capital-G "Epic G!mers." Coincidentially, the political ideology of both latter groups tend to line up.

        Yes, I physically touched a computer to write this reply. However, I am not in a tech field where I am paid to touch that computer and paid so much on top of that that it's my paid obligation to have absolutely horrible political takes because they're in my class interest to believe in them.
