@benroyce@mastodon.social @reflex@retrogaming.social @fathermcgruder@jorts.horse Exactly. If you hadn’t voted blue in those elections, how do you think the outcome would’ve been different? It’s fucking discouraging, I know. I have 55 years of voting. We are up against entrenched authoritarian forces. Voting is one of our tools. Not the only one but essential. Progressives not voting is what authoritarians want. It’s what they aim their disinfo/voter suppression campaigns at. Why help them?

@jbluespruce@mstdn.social @benroyce@mastodon.social @reflex@retrogaming.social @fathermcgruder@jorts.horse "Voting is never going to be enough" Correct "So I won't bother to vote" No. Voting is not enough. So you don't JUST vote. You vote AND you do everything else you need to do. Vote in primaries. Help progressive candidates reach the audience they need to reach. Work in your local community.
