Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

You don't exist in a democratic society. So what exactly do you want people to participate in?
No, the onus is first on you first to explain why "we don't exist in a democratic society" and above all what is your brilliant plan for making things better. If all you can do is whine about why it's all useless while you undermine the system by opting out of it, then frankly I'm not interested in anything you have to say.
Did you vote FOR the ongoing genocide the liberal status quo is funding in Palestine as we speak, genius? Were you ever given the chance, hmm?
Yes or no?
If no, where is your "public power?" Where is the democratic power you should have if you actually existed in a democratic society?
To a non-brainwashed person, this would be perfectly obvious. But it's not obvious to YOU.
Now you are demanding solutions to a problem you insist do not exist. A bit incoherent, don't you think?
ROFLMAO!
Good job demonstrating that you don't have the foggiest understanding of the system you are defending.
Your argument for not bothering to get off your ass and vote in a US election is "Palestine"? America deserves what it gets.
So I guess it truly is YOUR genocide then, eh?
Colour me surprised.
