Look you're either down to use your allotment of violence this November to fight back within the system, or you're mad enough to fight The System, and build anew.

super secret optionBoth, both is also good.

Anything else makes you a Republican Asset. Fascism is already here, and I don't believe you can vote your way out, but there is value in getting the data to prove it. There is value in giving The Democratic Party enough rope to hang themselves with. To prove to both yourself and others that even with more power The Democratic Party will still only fight with strongly worded letters.

There is also value in pumping up the DSA faction inside the party, and helping them takeover.

There is no value in staying home, and it's too late this election to build a Third Party Movement. So your options are either get behind Blue, or get ready to get bloody. Otherwise you're just a whining Republican Asset.

Just worth saying again.

This is literally the only path forward and everyone who isn't actively doing that is helping elect Republicans. But I'm pretty sure this is one of those subs that ban you if you try to say dems aren't as bad as republicans. World is filled with fuckass mods that ban when their feefees get hurt, make fuckin reddit mods look reasonable and deliberate half the time.
