Votes are earned.
You don’t think that posting on a random forum is casual? Antagonistic sure, but also definitely casual. I use socialist in person all the time in order to get around sectarian bullshit in contexts that are much more formal than an online forum lmao.
You blunder into a room (full of minorities) to proselytize that everyone must vote for dems to support trans people and then dismiss a markedly anti-democratic and anti-trans action, deferring entirely to the singular authority of a man who you claim to be a detractor of. You use your ‘anarchist creds’ to attack the left with uncritical, ahistorical analysis, but won’t criticize the establishment when there are quantifiable actions to criticize. You attack left orgs with basically zero institutional power for being pro-state whilst defending the literal US government. You resort to homophobic attacks to assume I am a useful idiot for foreign governments and perceived boogeyman and that I am no different from a Trump supporter. You don’t even bother mentioning how dem support for literal nazis factors into your support. You don’t respond to others who make compelling arguments against your tired points. Why the hell should I respond to you with anything other than dismissal?
Sorry for the necro reply, I’ve been away from Lemmy mostly.

Biden is not a dictator, I don’t know why you’d say this.

Are you assuming I’m a white man? Are you assuming your minority voice is more important than my minority voice (trans, gay, Mexican (daughter of immigrants), atheist, woman)? Why am I not allow to encourage people to vote for a candidate that has demonstrated support from trans people when the other choice has demonstrated contempt for trans people? Even if you think voting is pointless, you telling me I don’t have the right to try to protect myself in a way that seems useful to me seems like a shitty attitude. What is your goal?
…you use your ‘anarchist creds’ to attack the left with uncritical, ahistorical analysis, but won’t criticize the establishment when there are quantifiable actions to criticize…
You think I’m an anarchist that won’t criticize the establishment? You’ve assumed much in error. Anarchism is a criticism of the establishment, any establishment. Just because I didn’t go into the atrocities of U.S. history in my comment you think I’m gung ho America? lol Get out of your bubble and realize there are more than Marxists and Liberals.
You resort to homophobic attacks
What? lol
and that I am no different from a Trump supporter
I see you as acting like a Trump supporter, yes. You follow rich powerful men that tell you some group is the problem, not them hoarding resources. The only real difference is that Marxists clearly have empathy while the right is based in a lack of empathy.
You don’t respond to others who make compelling arguments against your tired points
I have been away for a bit, but I’ve replied to most of y’all’s tired points.

I don’t mind if you don’t respond, you do you.
