Some people can’t separate the ideal from the actual. Yeah the process sucks and we should demand better. Yeah we should demonstrate, protest, and riot. But we still have to fucking vote, and at the end of the day we have to win. In politics, you can’t play if you don’t win.

People who try to skip voting to go do the rest of the fun stuff should frankly get put in stockades at those riots and pelted.

Fuck these aesthetic allies, do the work or don't show up. Price of admittance to the instagramable protest march is the most recent "I Voted" sticker.
