Is that the only way to affect change in this world? I used to call myself an anarchist. Do you think I just vote to change this world into one I wish it to be? And even so, maybe the change I sought was "anyone but donald trump" because I literally could foresee this administration doing exactly this? When fascism is on the line, I was strategic in my actions by voting for Kamala. I'm no accelerationist. I would like to vote third party in national elections if the system were friendlier to it, but I am well aware of how the national election system works in the US—I know it was in favor of donald trump winning.
