I don't even know who Jill Stein is, asshole. Now you're just making shit up.
And if that's my plan, then obviously it's a pointless and doomed endeavor. I know people won't listen to me. I know I can't influence the American election as a non-American in not-America. Yet anarchists must say what only anarchists can say. And that is why I speak out against genocide.
I have never argued for abstention. Stop putting words in my mouth. And do you honestly think, I, a non-American in not-America, can affect the most influential election in the world? Get over yourself. I know people aren't listening to me. But anarchists must say what only anarchists can say.
What's my plan? To remind people what they're voting for? To remind people voting isn't enough? That plan? You're the one who has been belittling me in the past several days over basic principled positions on opposition to genocide. You willfully and freely provide ideological cover for Harris. You simply are not entitled to do that in anarchist spaces. That's literally all there is.
Why are you so entitled to soapbox your anti-anarchism, liberalism, electoralism, and ideological cover for genocide in our space when you can shit the floor in literally almost every other Lemmy? Go to those other communities; they'll welcome you. No, you're not entitled to it. Go pound sand.
You're correct! But defending Harris and her program is a different choice. You can vote, but you don't need to CHOOSE to defend Harris, you don't need to CHOOSE to defend her program, you don't need to CHOOSE to provide ideological cover for genocide. Vote if you want, but defending Harris is a different choice from voting. And doing this in an anarchist space? Why in our space? Can't you do that in the hundreds of other Lemmy communities? Don't use our space to soapbox. Do the ideological cover for genocide elsewhere, thank you very much.
Defending the shitty choice is defending the program of your vote. You can vote for the lesser evil, but do you need to defend the evil? Do you need to justify the evil? No. Just vote. You don't need to defend or justify evil.
Do you have any experience organizing? Because in my experience, booting out liberals from shitting in our physical spaces is a justified thing to do. Why not digital? Are they silenced? They still have literally almost every other Lemmy to spout their electoralist evilism. They are not censored or silenced from the public, just removed from anarchist spaces.
Anarchism doesn't mean free speech for anti-anarchists. Simple as. We welcome debate and dissent in our ranks, but don't lay down welcome mats for those who hate us and our program. Please tell me why you should feel entitled to soapbox in our space when literally almost every other Lemmy is devoted to the Harris cause? Soapbox somewhere else. I was just taking out the trash.
No it wasn't. They were justifying and defending Harris and defending voting for Harris. Anti-anarchists don't get to use anarchist spaces to push anti-anarchist talking points. They have literally almost every other Lemmy instance to push their voting agenda, why should they use ours?
No, you're just making shit up. People who already decided to vote for Harris won't change their minds at a few memes. That's not how anything works. You're ascribing meaning to actions that simply cannot represent those meanings. Memes aren't an abstention campaign.
