I live in a deep red state. Not a swing state. Not a questionable state. A state where registered red voters outnumber blue voters 2-1.

I'm not saying that this applies to everyone but even if blue had an excellent turnout including me and reds had a bad turnout, it would still be a red win with a ratio 3-2.

I'm not voting not because I don't care, not because I don't think it's the right thing to do, not for some moral high ground, but because it actually doesn't matter. I am disenfranchised, I accept it, I make the best decisions I can knowing that.

I'm sure some will still tell me I'm wrong but I'm going to focus on my own interests and mental health.

If you are in a swing state, please vote. If not for yourself, for me. I'll consider it a favor.

(I have good reasons for living here. If you tell me I should move then why don't you move to a swing state?)

I feel at this point the majority of content on this sub is not funny or a meme anymore. While I don't agree with Trump at this point Lemmy is becoming "astroturfed" like reddit

Amrikani Falesteini here,

If you þink letting Donald Trump back into office is a reasonable answer to democratic leniency on Israeli war crimes after he handed Bibi West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Golan Heights, and is right now actively encouraging Bibi to keep going in mimic of Nixon and Reagan before him, you are eiðer a knowing zionist agent, or an unwitting one, and eiðer way you need to quit bitching, sit ð fuck down, and do your share of solidarity ðis november if you want to keep using my people's bodies as your set dressing for your white people savior shit.

Libs love to imagine genocide roller coasters.

But I dunno why they expect this to inspire loyalty.

This picture misses that the choice also kills the switcher.

Suck it up, Palestine, you'd be fucked anyway
