    De La Cruz and the PSL Actually does things outside of run for office. Organize various revolutionary groups, protest genocide, help marginalized communities.

    Just because you ignore all political action besides voting every 4(or maybe 2) years doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

      They do nothing to earn their support of votes. Nothing. Little to no campaigning. Seemingly no viable policy that could work in the real world- and seemingly no willingness to even try and enter the ring and work with anyone.

      Nothing but empty promises and demands that will be laughed out of offices.

      But it sure looks good to people ignorant enough to not bother to understand how politics work in the real world.

      Change doesn’t happen just because you want it badly enough.

        I’ve been seeing it lots lately that party’s don’t have to earn votes but I guess it’s just Dems who are owed them?

        Nothing but empty promises and demands that will be laughed out of offices.

        Oh ya dude the Dems and Republicans loveee fulfilling campaign promises! That’s why we have healthcare, loan forgiveness, legal weed, the abolition of the death penalty…

        But it sure looks good to people ignorant enough to not bother to understand how politics work in the real world.

        Ah that’s what I was forgetting. In the real world only bad things can happen. It is foolish to believe anything good could occur. Ignorant me.

        Change doesn’t happen just because you want it badly enough.

        Than why vote for Kamala or Trump? We’re told Harris wants to end the genocide despite all evidence and that we must vote for her… And yet it seems to be simply based on the power of belief that she will do good things. Kamala isn’t going to stop the slaughter just because you want her to. Ditto for trump. His followers beliefs are all that keep him afloat despite him doing Jack shit.

          It’s far too late in the game to engage with any of you in any meaning way on this. You gave up the rights to my patience and respect when you all insulted everyone that tried to explain this to you- over and over again.

          I’m here to call out the bad faith bullshit, and point and laugh at the failed attempts to interfere with an election.

          Nothing more.

            Not my fault that you’re explanations explain nothing. But we can agree that’s it’s largely pointless to argue.

            It’s not bad faith to not enjoy genocide. I would never argue that in bad faith because I actually believe genocide is bad.

            I guess voting in an election is technically interfering in it but odd way to put that.

              Hey, news flash bud…

              No one here enjoys genocide. You’ve not part of some enlightened yet totally secret grassroots movement of people that somehow managed to draw the conclusion that- SURPRISE! Genocide is a bad thing now!

              It’s just that that the rest of us understand how shit works. It has been explained to you for months. The information exists EVERYWHERE.

              You have no excuses to remain this ignorant on the matter. So… Enjoy pouting and not voting while the rest of us do everything we can to keep your right to ignore all logic and reason in favor of whatever bothers you this election year.

              Because we ALL know you’ll have some other reason to not vote in 2028.

                  “Another” genocide? When was the first one? The Democrats never started a genocide. I’d LOVE for you to show me where in history this happened.

          That’s a lot of words to say you don’t understand how electoral politics works. Or pay attention to politics at all based on the second block there. If you think that tired and intellectually lazy BoTh SiDeS bullshit has any merit, your opinion is basically worthless.

          And based on your simping for an unknown 3rd party, I’m pretty sure I know how valuable your opinion is. But hey, go with the option the fascists want you to take, that will show the democrats!!1!
