    Yes. But things getting worse slower is better than things getting worse faster. Surely you can understand this logic. And if you are for accelerating it then why even bothering joining this conversation.

      To be clear, I am not for “watching the world burn because F%#* it”.

      The questions are what is effective resistance? Whose fault it is if that resistance isn’t happening? Who polices who about what acceptable mainstream strategies and narratives for resistance are?

      People are answering these questions and you don’t like the answers.

        Effective resistance comes from local elections, where you can influence the people you interact with daily to vote with you.

      Settling for things getting worse slowly is insane. Slowly getting worse is things like the total amount I paid for my house 30 years ago not being enough to cover a down payment on a house today.

      Only because you consent to it getting worse, instead of getting off your ass and doing anything about it. Voting for Greens or PSL is the bare minimum. Surely you can understand this logic.

        I have gotten off my ass and voted in past elections and will in this election. If you can show me a convincing poll or statistics to show voting for either of those parties will prevent Trump, then sure. Until then I’m voting for what I value as the least worst to help maximize our chance of not having him be president.
