@TechGuyTony@shipwreckshow So one side cuts off your leg and the other cuts off your arm. Each of them vows to fix the part the other side took but they'll need to take more to do so. So instead of finding one that doesn't take anything and fixes both you just smile with no legs and no arms?
@TechGuyTony@shipwreckshow There's a poem by Robert frost about 2 trails going through the woods. Which do you follow? That is the narrative that they put out. If enough people start forming their own trail they can't stop that. Sitting at the crossroads doesn't hurt them.
@TechGuyTony@shipwreckshow You're already conceding the battle then. If people start unifying and writing in the same candidates then it will change things. At the polls when they see the giant stack of ballots that they have to read. On social media where they get more views than the mainstream
@TechGuyTony@shipwreckshow I agree with all of that. However there is a minimal chance that promoting good people can sway that. We have our own media right here. 2 people that would never discuss this in the real world. The only group that loses here is the middle if we don't vote at all.
@TechGuyTony@shipwreckshow I'd respect a vote for Micky mouse over red or blue. But half the country already doesn't vote and they don't care. The only logic I see in not voting is the Ds and Rs convincing people to do it. They win we lose. This @shipwreckshow is taking down the middle. Not the sides.
@TechGuyTony@shipwreckshow Because Dems and Republicans both like wars and protecting pedos. The literal only option is to get non party politicians and hope that they aren't corrupt too. Not voting is not going to hurt them Dems or the Republicans. They are winning. Her check cashed.
@TheOnlySKirkM57@shipwreckshow We aren't tea partying out of it either.
But voting is how they gauge our loyalty. Stepping out is accepting the status quo.
@shipwreckshow A 3rd part did win. MAGA was more than trump. They just got duped by the greatest Democrat in American history DJT. They took all the beliefs and shattered them into oblivion. It's people like you who can pick up the pieces.
@Pharmer_75@grunt2024@shipwreckshow Now imagine those same exact people see that people are noticing. Do you think they would rather the disenfranchised to form a group that could make the debate stage or sit out and let them continue to do what they're doing?
@melaniesmith555@shipwreckshow@JnineWally Just be smart enough to realize not voting help us in no way at all. Vote for what your conscious allows. But sitting out and thinking they give a shit about us is just silly. It won't change anything. It gives them an easier path and solidifies their position if power.
