    Been there for most of my life. And I’ve watched anti-electoralists and non-voters help walk back nearly every bit of progress I’ve seen in my lifetime.

      Why would you blame people who did nothing over the people actually fighting for and executing the harm?

        Because the trump voters have no standards. Being mad at them for electing trump is like being mad at a chimp for throwing feces.

        Because, statistically, they are a larger group that could have helped but selfishly decided not to and inaction is a choice that only serves to help the oppressors. Anti-electoralists and other accelerationists have been helping the oppressors win for over half a century, to intentionally cause human suffering to try to ignite a hot class war in the hope of achieving their utopia.

        That there is not a shred of historical evidence of accelerationism successfully resulting in societal improvement or that said utopia it would be built upon the blood of the oppressed never seems to matter. That seems rather worse, to me, than those who simply want to oppress - using the suffering of others who did not volunteer as a means to an end.

    Almost everyone here is already a radicalized insane person who apparently has been disconnected from reality for awhile at this point.

      I’m so radical, I want everyone to have healthcare and paid sick leave. I’m so radical I’m against 3 men having as much wealth as the bottom 50% of Americans.
