    Why would I do that? Are you an accelerationist?

    If there is an anti genocide candidate on my ballot then I’ll vote for them.

    You want to know where my line is? It’s genocide. I will not vote for a genocidal candidate.

    My house rep is Emily Randall. I will not vote. Everyone on my ballot is genocidal, in the bluest of blue districts.

    Take comfort in the fact that my vote never mattered anyways, like 90% of Americans in decided districts and states.

    If it was up for a straight referendum vote then the genocide would end tomorrow, like so many other injustices, but instead we have unanimous consensus from our supposed representatives that’s diametrically opposed to the people’s actual popular democratic mandates.

    Make that make sense.

    This is not a democracy.
