Big "all lives matter" vibes
I'm choosing to believe they were being sarcastic but yeah. Don't forget that the tankies would rather have everyone die than not have every one of their demands met under their terms.
Literally. Tankies would gladly sacrifice every trans person if they thought it would usher in their nonsense global revolution.
Yeah and I would wager that tankies are actually even doing it intentionally some decent percentage of the time because it's a movement based in ego and supremacy, and that usually follows that they tend to have a lot of sacrificable out groups...
Not really.
The problem with "All lives matter" is that it dismisses the fact that there is racial discrimination alive and well in our law enforcement system.
This is an argument against ideological purists kneecapping ONE movement trying to make change in order to maintain their purity. The effectiveness of that change is very much up for debate, but the sacrifice people who choose to vote are making is negligible compared to the potential impact their vote CAN make (see Zhoran Mamdani or Donald Trump for the extremes of that change).
The goal of this argument is not to discount the concerns of the people who refuse to vote, but to advocate for them to use their privilege, in spite of their disagreements, to increase the likelihood that this ONE method will have the CHANCE to try to affect positive (or at least less negative) change.
