No, you terminally online radlib.
A) shift the Overton Window to the left via grassroots movements such as Unionization, organizing, setting up networks of mutual aid, building parallel structures, and advocate for others to do the same, while plugging your nose and voting Democrat to keep fascists out of office, LIKE I SAID IN THE ORIGINAL POST.
B) do whatever the fuck you're doing, and try to encourage voter apathy while absolutely railing against anyone even suggesting both voting democrat and unionizing.
I pick option A, both denying Trump and also shifting the Overton Window to the left. You pick option B, doing absolutely jack shit while screaming online and also voting Democrat, leaving America an increasingly far-right state with nothing to to show for it in several years time.
Touch grass.
Nope, you're not weaseling out of the fact that you can't admit you care more about your political agenda than stopping genocide and protecting your would-be constituents to me. You have to make a choice, and I'm gonna keep repeating that choice over and over until you make it.
Now, you only have two mutually exclusive choices.
A) Shift the Overton window to the left, which will 100% guarantee Trump gets re-elected with the murder of millions
B) Vote for a Democrat which will keep Trump out of office and save millions of lives, but keep the Overton window center-right for the rest of the decade
Pick one. I dare you to.
I'm sorry, neither myself nor those I care about are privileged enough to both support the status quo by voting Democrat without also organizing and unionizing. Unlike privileged liberals like yourself, many people are struggling and can't afford what they need, or are targeted by fascists for being a sexual, ethnic, or gender minority.
I won't apologize for saying that it's not enough to vote Democrat alone, and that people should both vote Democrat and make meaningful change on the ground via Unionization, organization, and education.
Pick one: wash your hands, or wipe your ass?
I'm sorry, no one in the real world is going to be fooled by your blatant attempts to weasel out of choosing between your politica agenda and the safety of everyone in the country no matter how many alt accounts you dig out.
Now, you can only get one. So have some courage to be honest about what you’re really saying and choose:
A) Shift the Overton window to the left, which will 100% guarantee Trump gets re-elected with the murder of millions
B) Vote for a Democrat which will keep Trump out of office and save millions of lives, but keep the Overton window center-right for the rest of the decade
Pick one. I dare you to truly be honest and do it.
