We get it you’re excited for Kamala but please stop brigading this leftist sub. Liberals are not leftists because of capitalism and as far as we know she hasn’t changed her policies so she could still be pro-Israel for all we know. Biggest issue that people had with Biden was the genocide and just because she got endorsed doesn’t mean we should suddenly forget about the Palestinians. The lesser evil argument is a just a way of proving that you have no democracy if you have to choose between two Hitlers. It just proves that your two party system is ruled by the bourgeoisie.

I just don’t buy that you can “not vote in a leftist way”. No shame to people that are alienated by the democratic party and their colonialist foreign policy and pro capitalist policies; that said, I wish people who call themselves leftist would stop insisting that not voting is actually morally good. Besides if you don’t want to vote, then why do you care that someone else is going to? Why care who’s running? Why pay so much attention to politics anyways?

IMO voting is bare minimum political engagement and republicans wouldn’t spend so much time and effort disenfranchising people if it was useless. (Yes I’m aware and hate how undemocratic the US can be) voting is still just a tool and many leftists seem unwilling to use the most widely accessible political tool we have as if that makes them above it all.

Why does anyone think not voting is a good idea? I get it but it’s just gonna let trump win

Because they don’t actually care about the real world impacts. They pretend they won’t happen, or would have happened no matter what, and they get to feel good that their hands are “clean” while others deal with the results of their apathy.
